What is NOTCHY LIMIT?
Notchy Limit puts your AI usage limits in the MacBook notch — the dead space above the display — so your session percentage and weekly quota are visible at a glance. It fires alerts at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 90%, so a limit reset never catches you mid-workflow. Beyond Claude, it can track other providers such as Codex and Gemini, and it can live in the menu bar as well as the notch. Everything runs locally: no account, no data collection, and no telemetry. The app is free and open source under the MIT license, and it's written in Swift to keep its footprint minimal. It's aimed at developers and power users who burn through AI sessions fast enough that a surprise cutoff actually costs them time, and who want a quiet, always-visible gauge instead of checking a dashboard. Because it reads limits passively and stays out of the way, it works as a background utility rather than another app to manage.
What is NOTCHY LIMIT used for?
Developers and AI power users use Notchy Limit to watch their Claude and other AI usage limits live in the MacBook notch and get alerts before hitting a cutoff.
