Hello Folks, I am an indie developer, For the last 5 months I was freelancing by building GPT-powered chatbots. One of the challenges I faced was not having visibility into my OpenAI costs. This is why I have built a dashboard to get a complete breakdown of my OpenAI API usage through network calls from OpenAI. Please give it a try & help with feedback on how I can further improve the product,which can really add value and save some money. Note: 1)I found this API through the network logs of the billing screen. 2)The tool stores the OpenAI Key locally on the browser.

I started leaning in on AI heavily this year, as I wanted to get more done autonomously, but then my token usage climbed dramatically to the point where my weekly quota would run out before the end of the week, sometimes a couple of days into the week. I realised I had to do something about it else I'd have to double my spend. So I decided to start tracking my cost per task type. This revealed that a lot of my spend went to searches/scans or simple things like scouting tasks. I then decided to turn this into a simple CLI tool that can be used to read your OpenAI-style logs locally, and…

Hey HN! Built this after watching engineering teams repeatedly get surprised by AI API invoices — no visibility into spend until the bill landed. TokenWatch connects to your OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini keys and gives you: - Real-time spend dashboard across projects - Budget thresholds with proactive alerts - Anomaly detection for unusual cost spikes - Duplicate call detection (biggest source of wasted spend I've seen) Free tier supports up to 3 AI systems. Built this in ~2 days as a solo project. Happy to answer anything about the build or the problem space.

Hi HN, My name is Ben Schaechter and I’m Co-Founder and CEO of https://vantage.sh - a cloud cost visibility and optimization platform. We just added support for monitoring OpenAI costs and usage to Vantage and I wanted to share a demo we put together with HN as I thought people might find it interesting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzAOU1-uMrM In early April we started getting requests from customers to add OpenAI cost support specifically as it was a bit opaque as to what exactly was driving costs. The way this works is that it uses an undocumented API available…

Hi! My OpenAI costs started going up recently and I hated how I couldn't figure out which model was costing me more? The OpenAI usage page (https://platform.openai.com/account/usage) gives a nice overall breakdown, but it doesn't go into detail about cost / model, token usage, and # requests. So I reverse engineered their API to make a better dashboard, and then made it free to use. Try it out and let me know what you think. Also please tell me what other features you wish existed here https://platform.openai.com/account/usage but doesn't yet.
