Two apps in one notch

A live command center for your AI coding agents — and the only spend tracker that also watches your media-gen credits and subscriptions.

👁️

Live session monitor

See every running Claude Code & Codex session — project, model, elapsed time, tokens, cost — updating live in the notch.

Approve from the notch

Permission requests surface as a banner. Allow or deny with ⌘Y/⌘N — or set always-allow — without switching windows.

🔔

Task-complete pings

A sound and a ✓ the instant a session finishes its turn, so you can walk away and know when to come back.

↩︎

Jump to terminal

Click any session to raise the exact terminal window it runs in — Terminal, iTerm2, Warp, Ghostty, WezTerm & more.

💸

Total AI spend

Claude, OpenAI, Gemini and 13+ providers, plus Runway / fal / ElevenLabs credits and every subscription — one honest number.

📊

Real usage limits

Your live 5-hour and weekly Claude limits from Anthropic's own numbers — with burn-rate projection before you hit the wall.

🎨

Make it yours

Ten styles from 8-bit arcade to Swiss paper, any bundled font, custom accent & background, and 8-bit open animations.

🗓️

Subscription radar

Every AI subscription on one calendar with renewal alerts, so no trial quietly bills you at full price.

🔌

Local models & MCP

Track Ollama and LM Studio usage, and connect anything that speaks MCP — all on the same dashboard.

Why TokenLens

Notch apps watch your agents. Bars watch your quota.
Only TokenLens does both.

Questions

Good to know

Does it send my data anywhere?

No. TokenLens runs entirely on your Mac, reads your local Claude Code transcripts, and talks only to a backend bound to 127.0.0.1. No account, no sign-in, no telemetry. Your API keys and tokens are encrypted on-device.

Which agents and terminals are supported?

Claude Code and Codex CLI today, with more agents on the roadmap. Click a session and TokenLens switches to the exact tab running it in Terminal or iTerm2; Warp, Ghostty, WezTerm, kitty, Hyper, Alacritty and Tabby are brought to the front.

What's new in the latest version?

0.7.0 (Sep 3, 2026): reply to Claude from your phone (two-way Telegram), Bark push to iPhone/Watch, plan review with feedback, safe Allow-all that never waves through rm -rf or force-push, focus-aware surfacing, tmux/WezTerm/kitty pane precision, Hermes/Cursor/Copilot/Cowork sessions, a calibrated 80% forecast of your limit, task-level cost analysis, Codex/Copilot/DeepSeek/Kimi quotas plus custom relay APIs, SSH Remote, unused-quota nudge, on-device dictation, resume-safe accounting, language picker, Homebrew, statusline, custom sounds & quiet hours, Monthly Wrapped card, display currency, iCloud settings sync. 0.6.0: answer from the notch, any display, more agents, Daily Digest, project budgets, automation, multi-account.

How do approvals work?

A tiny hook (installed by the first-run wizard, with your settings.json backed up first) forwards Claude Code permission requests to the notch. If TokenLens isn't running, your normal terminal prompt takes over — it can never block or silently allow anything.

What does the trial include?

Everything — for 14 days, no card. After that the app keeps running; you'll just see a gentle reminder to activate. No features are ripped out from under you.

Can I move my license to a new Mac?

Yes. Deactivate in Settings ▸ License on the old Mac and activate on the new one. A 1-Mac license means one Mac at a time.

What do I get during pre-sale?

The current build plus a full year of updates at the $15 price — the roadmap (more agents, richer styles, iOS companion) lands as free updates during that year.
