Keep related provider activity attached to the same session
Track Claude usage without waiting for the totals later.
TokenBar keeps Claude session growth, active usage, and long-context runs visible in real time from your Mac menu bar.
Overview
What makes TokenBar useful in this workflow.
A Claude usage tracker needs to answer a practical question: what is happening inside the session right now? If the signal arrives after the run is over, it does not help you understand the repeated-request or long-message path that actually caused the cost.
If you want the adjacent TokenBar pages for this query, open OpenAI Token Monitor for macOS, compare it with Cursor Usage Tracking for macOS, and keep AI Token Monitor for macOS nearby for the next step.

Why Claude usage is easy to lose track of
Claude traffic can be hard to read when long messages or mixed-provider sessions are involved. The cost is real, but the explanation often gets flattened into a later total that no longer shows which path changed.
TokenBar helps by keeping the session readable while it is still in motion. Instead of asking what happened after the fact, you can watch the usage pattern while the Claude workflow is still open.
A Claude tracker that matches real mixed-provider workflows
Many developers do not use Claude in isolation. They switch between OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, supported Cursor workflows, and other editor tools in the same working session. TokenBar is useful because it keeps those transitions legible instead of scattering them across dashboards.
That makes it a better fit for someone searching for a Claude usage tracker but actually dealing with a broader LLM workflow on macOS.
Local-first visibility beats another analytics tab
TokenBar is designed as a menu bar utility, not a hosted analytics layer. For privacy-sensitive or distraction-sensitive workflows, that matters. You can keep Claude usage visible without building another habit around a separate reporting interface.
It also keeps the buying decision simple: Basic $5 or Pro $10.
