Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A free Windows and macOS widget that displays Claude account limits, reset times, usage pace, and backup status.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-22 issue.

For: Claude users managing multiple devices and local AI project files
Worth noticing: The app combines account-wide usage data with backup-age indicators for OneDrive, Nextcloud, and Obsidian.

Field notes

The widget offers two data paths: a local Claude Desktop log for this computer, or a claude.ai source that the site says reflects usage across an account's devices after a browser sign-in. Its secondary panel tracks backup freshness for AI-workflow materials, including skills, CLAUDE.md rules, project memory, MCP settings, conversation logs, and Obsidian notes. The page also links to the app's MIT-licensed source and a separate Backup Kit.
