Your AI limits, in the Windows tray.
Gaugely shows how much is left of each AI subscription and what the APIs are costing you, as tray icons and an optional floating strip, so you see a limit coming before it stops you mid-task.

How it works for you
One icon per service
Each tray icon shows the limit that will run out first. Hover for that service's limits; click for the full details.
Floating strip
A small gauge per service, always on top, horizontal or vertical — or docked flush against a screen edge.
Alerts
A notification when a limit crosses the level you choose.
Settings for everything
Light and dark themes, 11 languages, and a plain settings.json for those who prefer a file.
Notch mode
Dock the strip flush against any edge of the screen. The corners on the docked side curve inward, so it reads as part of the screen rather than a window floating over your work.
- Drag it to another edge and it snaps there; the position along the edge is remembered.
- Hover a gauge for that service's limits; click for the full details.
- Ctrl + mouse wheel resizes it.

Private by design
- Runs only on your PC. No account, no telemetry, no server of ours in between.
- Keys stay in Windows. API keys you paste go to the Windows Credential Manager, never to a file.
- Only the official services. Every address is fixed in the code, and requests that carry a key never follow redirects.
- Updates are your call. Checking is off by default; when you install one, its origin, checksum and version are verified first.
The full list of what is read and sent, and where, is in the security notes.
