About this app

TokenCounter is the simplest way to keep tabs on what your Anthropic API account is costing this month — without giving up your privacy.

Paste your Admin API key once, and the app fetches live cost data straight from Anthropic to your phone. You'll see:

• Month-to-date spend across your whole organization
• Today's intra-day cost estimate (Anthropic's daily report only closes yesterday's bucket; we add a token-priced estimate of today)
• Breakdown by model
• A quick visual sense of whether you're under, on track, or over your usual monthly burn

TokenCounter does not have a server. The app talks directly from your phone to api.anthropic.com using your key. Nothing about your account, key, usage, or cost ever passes through any third party — including us.

WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT

• No account to create.
• No analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising SDKs, no third-party trackers. Zero.
• Your Admin API key is stored only in the Android Keystore on this device, protected by your device biometrics / screen lock.
• One-tap "Disconnect" in Settings wipes the key from secure storage.
• Native Jetpack Compose, no web views for data, no bloated frameworks.

WHAT YOU NEED

TokenCounter reads from Anthropic's Admin API, which requires:

1. An organizational Anthropic account (admin keys aren't available on individual accounts).
2. An Admin API key (the ones that start with sk-ant-admin…, not the standard sk-ant-api… keys).

The onboarding flow walks you through creating both. If you already have them, it's about 30 seconds to be up and running.

WHO IT'S FOR

Developers, founders, and ML engineers who use Anthropic's API every day and want a fast way to check spend without logging into the Console on the web. Especially useful if you're testing prompts that could rack up cost quickly and you want a glanceable number.

PRIVACY
