AI Token Scrooge: Never Waste a Token! Never Miss a Reset!

Ever let an earned Codex reset expire? I built AI Token Scrooge to track Codex, Copilot, and Claude usage, refreshes, and earned resets in one open-source Windows app.

AI Code

Never Waste a Token! Never Miss a Reset!

Ever let an earned Codex reset expire before you could use it? Or realized you could have run that longer agent task before your allowance refreshed? Me too. That's why I built AI Token Scrooge.

You're paying for that AI capacity. Scrooge helps you see what's left and when it's coming back, so you can put it to work.

Built for Windows with .NET 10 MAUI and the Windows App SDK, Scrooge brings your AI usage into a native desktop app with Windows notifications and system tray monitoring.

AI Token Scrooge is open source with the full source code on GitHub. Take a look, try the app, or help add support for your favorite AI service.

What Scrooge Does

See what's coming with Reset Horizon. Your usage history, upcoming refreshes, and earned Codex reset expirations share one timeline. Spot a refresh coming up and decide whether it's time to tackle that bigger task.
Find the account with room to work. See usage bars and reset countdowns for Codex, Copilot, and Claude together, with automatic checks at your chosen polling intervals.
Use those earned resets before they expire. Get a reminder while there's still time to claim them in Codex. Scrooge keeps track; you decide when to use them.
Know when you're running low and when you're ready to go again. Get alerts as capacity runs down or becomes available, with sounds, quiet hours, snoozing, and mute controls that fit your day.
Let Scrooge keep watch while you work. Start it with Windows and leave it in the system tray. Your dashboard is one click away.

Checking usage does not consume AI tokens. Scrooge monitors and reminds you; it doesn't send AI prompts, claim resets, purchase credits, or switch accounts in your other apps.
