PaceBar: Codex Usage
Codex usage at a glance
Only for Mac
Free
Mac
PaceBar keeps your Codex balance and usage visible without interrupting your work.
See your available credit balance directly in the macOS menu bar, or switch the menu bar display to quota remaining. Open the compact panel for the full picture: credit balance, weekly usage, elapsed time, pace compared with a sustainable rate, reset time, projected limits, and reset credits.
PACE AT A GLANCE
• Available credit balance or quota remaining in the menu bar
• Local estimate of when the credit balance may reach zero
• Weekly usage and elapsed-window progress
• Sustainable pace indicator
• Projected limit date and reset time
• Clear warning when your current pace would exhaust the allowance early
• Reset-credit count kept separate from the main credit balance
• Unofficial Will Codex Reset forecast, clearly identified as third-party
• Optional macOS alert when that unofficial forecast reaches 70%
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
PaceBar has no ads, analytics, or tracking. It includes the open-source Codex command-line component for local authentication and read-only usage access. PaceBar does not send your Codex account data to the PaceBar developer or to the forecast service.
REQUIREMENTS
A Codex-enabled account and internet access are required. On first use, choose Connect Codex and complete the official browser sign-in flow. No separate Codex installation is required.
PaceBar is an independent application and is not affiliated with or endorsed by OpenAI.
Ratings & Reviews

PaceBar 3.1 fixes a release packaging issue that caused the Mac App Store build to show the earlier interface.
This update restores PaceBar’s premium obsidian, ivory, and gold design while preserving every 3.0 feature. It also improves status clarity, contrast, focus states, and visual consistency.
