Every feature, in detail
What the cockpit makes of your numbers — new in each version, with the platforms and the version it arrived in. Below: what runs where.
NewIn six languagesMAC + IOS + WIN
French, Simplified Chinese, Hindi and Spanish, next to German and English. On the Mac and Windows you pick one under Settings › General › Language; the iPhone follows your device and has a Language page in Settings. This website is available in all six languages too. Since Mac 7.8, iPhone 2.19 and Windows 1.11.
NewA gentler startMAC + IOS + WIN
Setup begins with your subscriptions — Claude, ChatGPT/Codex and Copilot — each with one plain line. Developer keys sit folded away. Claude and ChatGPT sign in right there, in your browser, and the last page says honestly when nothing is connected yet. Since Mac 7.8, iPhone 2.19 and Windows 1.11.
NewHelp & FAQ inside the appMAC + IOS + WIN
One entry in the footer, the menu or the settings opens the first-steps page on aicockpit.info — in German when the app runs in German, in English otherwise. The app sends nothing. Since Mac 7.8, iPhone 2.19 and Windows 1.11.
NewOne list for Claude Code and CodexMAC + WIN
Your sessions in three groups: needs you, still running, idle. A session that waits for an answer stays on top; subagents and background agents hang under their session. Since Mac 7.7 and Windows 1.10.
NewClaude figures from Claude CodeMAC + WIN
When Anthropic slows the request, the card can take the 5-hour and 7-day figures from the Claude Code status line — and says so: “from Claude Code, 1 min ago”. Off until you set it up. Since Mac 7.7 and Windows 1.10.
NewOpenAI costs that hold upMAC + IOS + WIN
One unreadable day no longer breaks the card. Costs load in sections of up to 31 days, and a day the app cannot read is named — “2 days missing” — and never counted as zero. Since Mac 7.7, iPhone 2.18 and Windows 1.9.
NewDiagnostics that say whyMAC + IOS + WIN
A light per provider, the last 50 requests and a “Test now”. The report is a draft: you read it and send it yourself — the app sends nothing. Since Mac 7.7, iPhone 2.18 and Windows 1.9.
NewProcessor and memory in the headerMAC + WIN
A small line under the title shows how busy your computer is and how much memory is in use. It measures only while the window is open, at an interval you set. Since Mac 7.7 and Windows 1.10.
NewKnow before a plan renewsMAC + IOS + WIN
Enter when Claude or ChatGPT renews, and the app tells you 1–7 days before, at 9 AM — for Claude with a hint if a smaller plan would do. The card says “Renews in 5 days (14 Oct)”. Since Mac 7.5, iPhone 2.16 and Windows 1.8.
NewA bell for every resetMAC + IOS + WIN
Tap the bell next to a window and you hear from the app once it is free again — at the reset, or at once if the provider resets early. Since Mac 7.5, iPhone 2.16 and Windows 1.8.
NewA daily share for the weekMAC + IOS + WIN
“9 % left for today so the week lasts” — every weekly window splits what is left across the days to the reset. On the cards and in the large widget. Since Mac 7.5, iPhone 2.16 and Windows 1.8.
NewQuiet nights, and your AI monthMAC + IOS + WIN
Quiet hours and “pause until tomorrow” keep the app silent at night. On the 1st, “Your AI month” says what AI cost you — plans and API, each service, the month before. Since Mac 7.5, iPhone 2.16 and Windows 1.8.
NewYour limits in the terminalMAC + WIN
Your percentages and amounts in the Claude Code status line — “Claude 63 % · Codex 49 % · OpenAI $2.87”. Off by default; no keys, no account names in the file. Since Mac 7.4 and Windows 1.7.
NewOne sentence says where you standMAC + IOS + WIN
“All in the green” or “Claude is getting tight today” — at the top of the panel, in the large iPhone widget and on the watch. Since Mac 7.4, iPhone 2.15 and Windows 1.7.
NewWhere to switchMAC + IOS + WIN
When a window hits 90 % and Codex, Claude or a second account still has room, the card says so: “Codex has 70 % left (5 h)”. Since Mac 7.4, iPhone 2.15 and Windows 1.7.
NewNo surprisesMAC + IOS + WIN
A notification when a window resets off schedule or your API spend jumps — and a check on whether your Claude plan pays off. Since Mac 7.3, iPhone 2.14 and Windows 1.7.
NewA control and four barsMAC + IOS + WATCH
Your status and “refresh now” in Control Center, on the Lock Screen and the Action button — and on the iPhone a Live Activity with up to four bars.
NewYour colorsMAC + IOS + WATCH
Three color schemes — Graphite, Deep Blue, Classic — and a color of your own for each card. Graphite is the default; Classic keeps the old look. On Windows too, since 1.7.
NewOver or under planMAC + IOS + WIN
A time marker in every bar shows how much of the window has passed. One look tells you whether you are ahead of your quota or running into it — “28 % over plan” says it in words.
NewUsed — or what’s leftMAC + IOS + WIN
Read every quota the way you think: as used or as remaining, on cards, widgets, the menu bar and the watch. The warning colors stay honest either way.
NewA countdown that ticksMAC + IOS
On the Lock Screen and in the widget the time to the next reset counts down every second — and the iPhone widget now fetches every service itself, Codex credits included.
NewDeepSeek, the ninth serviceMAC + IOS + WIN
Your DeepSeek balance per currency, with what you topped up and what was granted — dollars and yuan never added up. When the balance runs out, the card says so.
NewYour watch, your figureWATCH
A second complication you set up: which service, which window — 5 hours, week or credits — and used or remaining. The old one stays as it was.
NewFind any settingMAC + WIN
A search field at the top of the settings finds every switch, in English and German. Enter jumps to the first match — on Windows since 1.6.
NewHears about new versionsWIN
Once a day the Windows app asks GitHub whether there is a newer version and shows a quiet band if so. It downloads and installs nothing — and can be switched off.
NewWhen will it run out?MAC + IOS + WIN
Under every window: “At this pace full at 6:48 PM — before the reset”, or that it lasts. From your pace alone, no history needed — in the widget, on the Lock Screen and the watch too.
Alerts before the wallMAC + IOS + WIN
A notification when a window crosses your own threshold. Two levels, both off until you switch them on.
Widgets everywhereMAC + IOS + WATCH
Desktop widgets on the Mac, Home Screen, Lock Screen and StandBy on the phone — set up your way: one service or all, used or remaining. On the wrist, complications in four shapes — one of them set up your way.
The menu bar, your wayMAC
Both values, only the most critical one, a ring or the time remaining — plus a key-figures bar you compose yourself.
Live Claude Code sessionsMAC + WIN
What is running right now, with model, subagents, token shares and context window — and a heads-up when a session waits for you. From Mac 7.7 and Windows 1.10, Codex sessions sit in the same card, sorted by what needs you.
Outages, namedMAC + IOS + WIN
When a provider reports an incident, its card says so — instead of leaving you to wonder whether the fault is yours.
Demo modeMAC + IOS + WIN
Every card filled with sample figures, without a single account. Look around first, sign in later.
Ask it out loudIOS
«How full is my Claude window?» — Siri and Shortcuts answer from the figures already on the device.
Where your quota wentMAC + WIN
By project, model and hour, up to a year back — raw tokens, their API-price equivalent and an estimated share of each window. Numbers only, kept on your computer.
What runs where
Everything that keeps a limit from catching you out — on every screen you use. Honest ticks only: a dash means it is not there. Windows is free and outside the stores: no sandbox, no signature, no automatic updates — from 1.5 it tells you when there is a new one.

About the Windows build
it is a snapshot, not a twin — 1.8 brings what Mac 7.5 brings, from the renewal calendar to “Your AI month”, on top of 7.3 and 7.4 in 1.7, 1.9 added the OpenAI fixes and the diagnostics of Mac 7.7, and 1.10 brings the look of the Mac — main window, sessions card for Claude Code and Codex, settings with search, setup assistant — and takes the Claude figures straight from Claude Code; widgets stay on the Mac. It will not follow every Mac release. It is in no store, so there are no automatic updates — from 1.5 it checks GitHub once a day and tells you when a new version is out, without downloading anything. From 1.10 you get it as a Setup file (per user, no administrator rights). The files are not signed: Windows will call it an unrecognized app, and you get past that with More info → Run anyway.
