Usage Tracking & Trends

Track your ChatGPT usage over time. See your busiest days and how close you run to your Plus or Pro message limits in each rolling window.

Privacy-First Architecture

Your ChatGPT data stays on your device. CostGoat tracks your usage locally and never sends your conversations or account details to our servers.

How to Check Your ChatGPT Usage and Message Limits

OpenAI does not show a live usage meter, so here is how to work out your ChatGPT message limits by hand.

1

Check your ChatGPT plan

Open ChatGPT, click your profile, and go to Settings to confirm whether you are on Free, Plus, or Pro.

2

Learn your plan's message caps

Each plan has its own limits. Free has the tightest caps, while Plus and Pro allow far more messages per model within each rolling window.

3

Watch for the limit notice

When you reach a cap, ChatGPT shows a 'you've reached your limit' message along with the time your limit resets.

The automated alternative

OpenAI has no live usage meter, so guessing your remaining messages is a gamble. CostGoat counts your messages against your plan's caps and warns you before you run out.

Track More Than ChatGPT

CostGoat isn't just for ChatGPT. Track credits, usage, and balances across the AI, SaaS, and cloud tools you already run, all from one desktop app.
