Quiet in the menu bar. Precise when you open it.

Gauge keeps the number you need visible, then gets out of the way. Open the menu for every window and the exact local reset time.

The right information, at the right altitude.

No dashboard to manage. No account to create. Just the usage signal that changes how you plan the next run.

01

See the tightest window first

Gauge checks every available usage window and surfaces the one with the least room remaining.

02

Know exactly when it resets

A plain-language countdown sits beside the exact reset time in your own time zone.

03

Stay useful through hiccups

Automatic refresh and a last-known-good cache keep transient failures from turning the menu bar blank.

Everything in one glance

Designed to answer one question quickly.

How much Codex capacity do I have, and when does it come back? Gauge answers without following a Codex window around your desktop.

Your work stays your work.

Gauge reads a normalized rate-limit summary from the Codex installation already on your Mac. It does not read prompts, conversations, browser cookies, passwords, or API keys.

  • No analytics, advertising, or crash-reporting SDK
  • No developer-operated account system or backend
  • Only usage percentages and reset times are cached locally
