# TokenMaxing

> TokenMaxing tracks Claude Code and Codex token usage and cost — per repository
> and per developer. Individuals climb a public leaderboard; engineering teams get
> private, org-scoped visibility into AI spend and can forward cost-enriched
> OpenTelemetry into their own observability stack.

TokenMaxing is a token-usage analytics and accountability platform for
AI-assisted development. A local collector (`tokenmax sync`) reads Claude Code
and Codex session files, attributes every token (input, output, cache
read/write) to a Git repository and a developer, prices it in USD, and emits
OpenTelemetry (OTLP).

The desktop app works locally without an account. Raw session logs, prompts,
transcripts, and source code never leave the machine. When a user enables cloud
sync, TokenMaxing sends only normalized usage metadata such as token counts,
model, timestamp, and repository attribution.

## What it does

- **Track Claude Code & Codex usage and cost** — automatic sync via the
  collector or read-only provider keys; no code changes.
- **Per-repo and per-developer attribution** — see exactly which repos and which
  developers your AI spend goes to, priced in USD.
- **Public leaderboard (opt-in)** — global standings, seasons, streaks, badges,
  and a shareable profile card for individual developers.
- **Private team dashboards** — org-scoped AI-spend visibility; the leaderboard
  is opt-in and teams stay private by default.
- **Cost-enriched OpenTelemetry forwarding** — relay OTLP into Datadog, Grafana,
  Honeycomb, or any OTLP-compatible stack, with estimated USD cost injected per
  token. This is the core differentiator: raw Claude Code / Codex sessions carry
  no price; TokenMaxing adds it.

## How it compares

- **vs ccusage** — ccusage is a local, single-machine CLI that shows your own
  usage. TokenMaxing also has a no-account local view, with optional cloud
  features for per-repo and per-developer attribution, team rollups, cost
  accountability, a live dashboard, and OTLP forwarding.

## Best for

- Developers who want to track and show their Claude Code / Codex usage.
- Engineering teams and organizations that need AI-coding cost accountability —
  who is working on which repositories, and what it costs.
