tokcount — live token & cost for AI chat Autor: vøiddo

tokcount is a live token, cost, and context-window meter for every major AI
chat product. As you type in the composer, a small overlay in the corner
shows:

• tokens — estimated using per-family heuristics (o200k / claude /
gemini / llama / mistral / cohere / gpt) plus language multipliers
for non-latin scripts
• cost — input-token dollar estimate at the current model's per-1M
input rate
• context % — how much of the model's context window you've already
committed to the prompt

It works in:

• ChatGPT (chat.openai.com + chatgpt.com)
• Claude (claude.ai)
• Gemini (gemini.google.com) and AI Studio (aistudio.google.com)
• Perplexity (perplexity.ai)
• Poe (poe.com)
• OpenRouter (openrouter.ai)
• Hugging Face Chat (huggingface.co)
• Grok (grok.com + x.com/i/grok)
• Mistral Le Chat (chat.mistral.ai)
• DeepSeek (chat.deepseek.com)
• Cohere Coral (coral.cohere.com)

WHY USE IT

• Stop writing five paragraphs into ChatGPT then realizing you blew
past the context window — the bar turns red at 85%
• Stop eyeballing "how expensive is this prompt, actually" — it shows
dollars, not abstract token counts
• 30-day usage dashboard by model and project, CSV export (Pro)
• Daily / weekly / monthly budget guards with optional hard-stop (Pro)

FREE FOREVER

PRIVACY

tokcount does not read your prompts after you send them. It counts
characters in the composer before you hit send, converts locally, and
writes nothing but aggregate daily totals to browser-local storage. The
only outbound requests are:

(1) a once-per-hour pull of the public pricing manifest
(voiddo.com/tools/tokcount/pricing.json — no cookies, no body)
(2) a once-per-day license revalidation IF you've entered a Pro key

No analytics. No telemetry. No third-party scripts. Source at github.com/voiddo.
