Track what your Claude, GPT and Gemini calls cost, and get plain tips on how to spend less.

TokenBurnRate is a small helper that keeps a record of every AI call you make and turns it into a simple cost report. It shows you where your money goes and gives you clear tips on how to lower the bill. It is handy if you use Claude, GPT or Gemini often and want to know what it actually costs.
What is an MCP server? The 30-second version
On its own, your AI can only chat with you. An MCP server is a small helper program that gives your AI a new skill or a connection to something else. This one connects your AI to your own local cost records, so it can look up what you have spent and suggest ways to save. You ask in normal words, and the AI uses this helper behind the scenes to get the numbers.
What this MCP server does
You ask your AI something like how much you spent this week. The AI passes that question to TokenBurnRate, which reads its local log of your API calls. It adds up the tokens and the cost, checks for patterns like unused caching or expensive models doing simple work, and hands the answer back. You see the total, the daily breakdown and a short list of saving tips right in the chat.

Try asking your AI
- “How much did I spend on AI this week?”
- “Show me my top three ways to save money on tokens”
- “Set a monthly budget of 50 dollars and warn me when I get close”
- “Which of my sessions cost the most this month?”
What it gives back to you
You get numbers and short lists in the chat: total cost, number of calls, token counts and a daily breakdown. The saving tips come as short items with a severity, the evidence and an estimated monthly saving. If you ask for a CSV, it gives you a file you can open in a spreadsheet.
Before you start
What you need
- Node.js 18 or newer installed on your computer
