Overview
OpenUsage is a free Mac menu bar app that shows how much of each AI subscription you have left. You sign in to accounts such as Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Copilot or Grok inside the app, and it shows session and weekly limits, credits, balances and reset times in one panel, with the numbers you watch most in the menu bar. It can alert you when a limit runs low. It suits people who pay for several AI plans and keep running into limits.
It reads limits only from each provider's own API through accounts you add, and colors each bar by whether your pace will run out before the reset.

Good to know
Add the AI accounts you pay for and keep their limits in one menu bar panel. Before a long session you can see how much of the weekly limit is left and when it resets, instead of opening each provider's settings page.
Limits
- It runs only on macOS 15 or later. The app always sends an anonymous daily usage ping and crash reports; extra analytics is on by default and can be turned off in Settings.
- It shows only what each provider's API reports, and some sign-ins grant wider access than the card needs; the providers page lists the scopes for each.
