I built TokenBoard to track AI coding token usage without uploading prompts or code

AI coding tools are getting good enough that I wanted a simple way to understand usage across real work, not just guesses from billing pages.

So I built TokenBoard: https://token-board.com/

It is a small leaderboard and personal stats page for AI coding usage. The local CLI currently supports Codex and reports aggregate metrics such as:

  • tokens
  • sessions
  • messages
  • models
  • estimated cost
  • active days

The main privacy rule is simple: TokenBoard does not upload prompts or code. It only reports usage metrics.

The product is still early. Right now the collector supports Codex, and I plan to add Claude Code and other AI coding agents later. The goal is to make it easier for developers to compare usage, understand cost, and optionally share a small stats card if they want to.

If you use Codex often, I would appreciate feedback on whether this is useful and what metrics would make the leaderboard or profile page better.
