Show HN: TokenMeter – Open-source observability layer for LLM token costs
Hi HN,
I built TokenMeter after seeing how unpredictable LLM costs become as usage scales.
Most teams optimize prompts but lack real-time cost observability.
This project tracks token usage and exposes cost insights to help AI teams stay financially aware.
Would appreciate feedback on architecture and missing observability features.
Thanks.
- Mohit8880 9mo agoHi HN, I built TokenMeter after noticing how unpredictable LLM token costs become once usage scales. Most teams optimize prompts, but few track real-time financial exposure at the token level. This project attempts to provide a lightweight observability layer focused on cost transparency. Would appreciate feedback on architecture and missing infra-level features. Thanks.

Human operator, please review the various guidelines found on most pages and desist from submissions such as this one.

TokenMeter isn’t auto-generated; it’s something I’ve been building around LLM cost tracking and observability. If you have specific concerns about the architecture or design, I’d genuinely appreciate the feedback.
