The Problem: "Invisible" AI Costs
Ever received an unexpected, massive bill from an AI API provider? You aren't alone. As developers, we love integrating LLMs into our projects, but the "black box" nature of token consumption makes it nearly impossible to predict costs before they hit our credit cards.

The Solution: AI Cost Explorer
I built AI Cost Explorer to solve this. It is a local-first, privacy-focused dashboard that lets you track, visualize, and optimize your LLM token usage and costs in real-time.

Key Features
Real-time Cost Ticker: See exactly how much your app is spending down to the cent, in real-time.

Intelligent Semantic Caching: Stop paying for the same answer twice. Our cache stores intent, delivering instant, free responses for repetitive queries.

Local AI Orchestration: Seamlessly manage local models (like Llama 3 via Ollama) alongside cloud providers to ensure you only pay when absolutely necessary.

Built for Developers
I built this because I needed a tool that was:

Privacy-First: Your code and project data never leave your local environment.

Performance-Driven: Zero latency, with an interface designed to give you the data you need without the "marketing fluff."
