TokenMeter: live quota and rate-limit tracking for AI coding plans
Tracks real quotas and rate limits across AI coding plans
- Problem
- Buyers of AI coding plans can't tell the models apart in practice, and can't predict which tier they'll blow through each month. One user paid $20 specifically to exploit a tool's free quota, then kept hitting limits without being able to find what the free allowance or rate limit actually was.
- Solution
- A crowdsourced plus tested quota database covering token caps, rate limits, overage behavior, and pricing for each AI coding tool and tier, with community-submitted measurements and update dates. Users plug in their usage pattern to see which plan is the better deal and when they'll run out, with alerts near the limit.
- Users
- Indie developers and small teams using Claude Code, Copilot, and similar AI coding tools heavily
- MVP
- Quota comparison for 10-15 mainstream plans; a simple usage estimator; a submission form for community measurements; email alerts when quotas change
- Revenue
- Free tables plus paid alerts and team seats; affiliate revenue from signups
- Why now
- AI coding plans are proliferating and repricing constantly while official docs stay vague, leaving buyers with high uncertainty about value
