Overview

OpenAI Usage Insights is a lightweight Chrome extension built for anyone who wants clearer visibility into their OpenAI API spending. Rather than sifting through raw numbers on the standard usage dashboard, this tool overlays intuitive stacked charts directly onto the platform, breaking down monthly costs by individual model so you can instantly see where your budget is going. Beyond visualization, the extension makes it simple to export your monthly usage data for offline analysis, reporting, or budgeting purposes. It's designed to slot seamlessly into your existing workflow on platform.openai.com, requiring no separate login or complex setup—just install, enable, and view your enhanced dashboard the next time you check usage. Whether you're an individual developer keeping tabs on personal API costs or a project manager overseeing a team's OpenAI spend, this extension turns a static usage page into an actionable cost-monitoring tool.
