What Would It Cost
What Would It Cost is a Claude Code cost tracker calculates API pricing equivalents for Pro and Max subscriptions live above prompts.
This product tracks the API-equivalent costs of Claude Code Pro and Max subscriptions live above the prompt. It updates after every model request and displays session spending, daily totals, weekly limit windows, and billing cycle totals. The tracker reads existing transcripts on installation to price the past month instead of starting at zero. It prices every model request, including subagents, using Anthropic list prices for input, output, cache reads, and cache writes. Users can view a full invoice with breakdowns by model and token type across multiple time tabs. All data stays local on the machine with no telemetry or network requests.
