About AI Meter

Measure local coding-agent token usage and estimate associated electricity and direct cooling-water use, entirely on your Mac. AI Meter measures token usage across your local coding agents and estimates the associated electricity and direct cooling-water use. The only network request is a public update check. These are local scenarios based on published research, not measurements from OpenAI, Anthropic, or their data centers. Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode, and Gemini CLI token counts are read from local records, deduplicated, and combined on your Mac.
