Shows what your AI coding tools cost, split by project, model and task
The problem it solves
Your AI coding bill came in higher than last month, and it shows one total with no hint of which project or model ran it up.
For People paying for AI coding toolsDevelopers on API billingTeams watching plan limits
- Before
- You guess from memory, or open each provider's dashboard and add the numbers up yourself.
- After
- One command reads the session files on your computer and shows spend by tool, model, project and task, plus what to change to spend less.

Overview
CodeBurn reads the session files that coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex and Cursor already keep on your computer and works out what each session cost. Run one command and you get a dashboard of spend by tool, model, project and task, from today back to your whole history. It also lists setup habits that use tokens without need, and comes as a desktop app and menu bar view too. It suits anyone who pays for AI coding tools and wants to see where the money goes.
It needs no account or API key: it reads files already on your disk, and its Optimize report names what to change to spend less.
Try these first
Start with the first one: it is a small task you can check easily.
- Run npx codeburn, stay on Today, and check the sessions listed against what you actually ran.First try · on your computer
- Switch to 30 days and find the project and model that cost the most.
- Run codeburn optimize and read the findings without applying any of them.read-only
- Set the plan you pay for with codeburn plan set, then run codeburn quota before a long session.

From the creator's documentation.
| Feature | What it does | Runs |
|---|---|---|
| Spend dashboard | Cost by tool, model, project and task, from today back to your whole history | Your computer |
| Many coding tools | Detects Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenCode and dozens more on its own | Your computer |
| Optimize | Lists unused MCP servers, skills and other setup that costs tokens; can apply and undo fixes | Your config files |
| Plans and quota | Shows how much of your subscription is used and whether the month will run over | Your signed-in tools |
| Desktop and menu bar | The same numbers in a desktop app, menu bar or tray, and a browser view | Your computer |
| Price list | Model prices download once a day; costs are estimates | Internet |
Good to know
See where the money for AI coding sessions went, broken down by tool, model, project and task. The report reads local session files, so you can compare periods or check a change without signing in anywhere.
Limits
- Costs are estimates priced from public model price lists; they do not replace the provider's bill or plan limits.
- The optimize step can change agent config files when you apply a fix. Read each proposed change first and keep the undo command at hand.
