• ✅ Automatic Tracking - No code changes needed
• ✅ Multi-Language Support - Python, Node.js, React, Vue, and more!
• ✅ Multi-Key Support - Track multiple API keys separately
• ✅ Real-time Costs - See costs as they happen
• ✅ SQLite Database - All data stored locally and securely
• ✅ CLI Tools - Easy-to-use command-line interface

🚀 Quick Start (2 Steps)

Step 1: Install

pip install ai-cost-tracker

Step 2: Add ONE Line

In your main Python file (the one that runs first):

import openai_cost_tracker.services.zero_config_tracker

That's it! All your OpenAI calls are now automatically tracked.

# Your existing code works as-is - no changes needed!
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI()
response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}]
)
# This call is automatically tracked! ✨

📊 View Your Costs

# View cost summary
openai-cost-view

# View last 7 days
openai-cost-view --days 7

# View by service
openai-cost-view --service my_service

# Export to JSON
openai-cost-view --export costs.json

📝 Examples

Flask App

# app.py
from flask import Flask
import openai_cost_tracker.services.zero_config_tracker  # Add this line

app = Flask(__name__)
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI()

@app.route('/chat')
def chat():
    # Automatically tracked!
    response = client.chat.completions.create(...)
    return response

FastAPI App

# main.py
from fastapi import FastAPI
import openai_cost_tracker.services.zero_config_tracker  # Add this line

app = FastAPI()
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI()

@app.post("/chat")
async def chat():
    # Automatically tracked!
    response = await client.chat.completions.create(...)
    return response

Python Script

# my_script.py
import openai_cost_tracker.services.zero_config_tracker  # Add this line

from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI()

# All calls automatically tracked!
response = client.chat.completions.create(...)

🔧 Advanced Usage

Manual Tracking (Optional)

If you prefer manual tracking:

from openai_cost_tracker import get_tracker
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI()
tracker = get_tracker()

response = client.chat.completions.create(...)
usage = response.usage

tracker.log_api_call(
    api_key=os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY"),
    api_type="chat",
    model="gpt-4",
    operation="create",
    cost=tracker.calculate_chat_cost(
        model="gpt-4",
        tokens_input=usage.prompt_tokens,
        tokens_output=usage.completion_tokens
    ),
    tokens_input=usage.prompt_tokens,
    tokens_output=usage.completion_tokens
)

Scan Your Codebase

Find all OpenAI usage in your project:

openai-cost-scan

# Scan specific directory
openai-cost-scan --scan-root /path/to/project

Daily Email Reports (Easy Setup!)

Set up daily email summaries with our interactive wizard:

# Install email support
pip install "ai-cost-tracker[email]"

# Run the interactive email configuration wizard
openai-cost-config-email

The wizard supports:

• SendGrid (Recommended - No password needed! Just API key)
• Mailgun (No password needed! Just API key + domain)
• Gmail/Outlook (With helpful step-by-step instructions)

Then start the monitor:

openai-cost-monitor

That's it! You'll receive daily cost reports automatically.

🌍 Multi-Language Support

Python

import openai_cost_tracker.services.zero_config_tracker  # That's it!

Node.js / Express

npm install ai-cost-tracker

const { getTracker } = require('ai-cost-tracker');
const tracker = getTracker();
await tracker.trackOpenAI(response, 'gpt-4', apiKey);

React / Next.js

npm install ai-cost-tracker

import { useCostTracker, CostSummary } from 'ai-cost-tracker/react';

function App() {
  const { trackOpenAI } = useCostTracker();
  return <CostSummary days={7} />;
}

📦 What Gets Tracked

• Chat Completions (GPT-4, GPT-3.5, etc.)
• Image Generation (DALL-E 2, DALL-E 3)
• Video Generation (Sora)
• Embeddings
• API Keys (hashed for privacy)
• Service Names (auto-detected)
• Tokens (input/output)
• Costs (calculated automatically)

💾 Data Storage

All data is stored locally in SQLite:

tracker = get_tracker()  # Get global tracker
# or
tracker = CostTracker(db_path="/custom/path")  # Custom tracker

# Calculate costs
cost = tracker.calculate_chat_cost("gpt-4", tokens_input=1000, tokens_output=500)
image_cost = tracker.calculate_image_cost("dall-e-3", size="1024x1024")
video_cost = tracker.calculate_video_cost("sora-2", seconds=8)

# Get summary
summary = tracker.get_usage_summary(days=7)
