See it in action.
Up and running in 60 seconds. Zero config, no API keys, and no login required.
Download & Launch
Download the universal build for macOS or Windows. QOTA attaches quietly to your system status bar and launches a local daemon.

Anchored Floating HUD
Standard windows vanish when you go full-screen. QOTA commands Cocoa level 1001 to float permanently in your peripheral vision without stealing window focus.
Automatic Local Accounting
QOTA hooks directly into local session files and SQLite transcripts in ~/.gemini and ~/.claude. Prompts deduct weighted units in real-time.
Built with tactile precision.
Everything you need to keep continuous visibility over your sprint budgets.
All from your menu bar
Live percentage and assistant indicators rest quietly beside your clock and Wi-Fi tray, giving you instant glanceability.
Level 1001 Overlay
Never gets trapped behind native full-screen IDEs. Binds to Cocoa NSScreenSaverWindowLevel across every workspace.
Completely Private
Zero network access. No API keys, no passwords, no tokens sent to third-party servers. All session parsing is strictly local.
Proportional Multipliers
Accurately tracks consumption across different models. Flash 1x, o3-mini 2x, Sonnet 4x, Opus 8x with dual sprint and weekly rails.
Whisper-Quiet Daemon
Under 28MB resident memory footprint. Negligible CPU usage with native OS filesystem event listeners.
Universal Deployment
Universal binaries for Apple Silicon & Intel, Windows 10/11 standalone installer, and Android floating overlay.

What is QOTA?
QOTA is a tactile, zero-cloud desktop application and floating HUD for macOS and Windows. It provides continuous real-time visibility over your AI sprint quotas and weekly rate limits across Antigravity, Claude Code, and OpenAI Codex.
How does QOTA track quotas without cloud relays?
QOTA hooks directly into local session files and SQLite WAL databases on your drive (such as ~/.gemini/antigravity and ~/.claude/sessions). Zero API keys are needed, and 0 bytes ever leave your computer.
What is Cocoa Level 1001?
On macOS, window level 1001 (NSScreenSaverWindowLevel) pins the floating HUD above all native full-screen spaces (such as full-screen VS Code or Ghostty) without stealing window focus or interrupting keystrokes.
Which AI models and multipliers are supported?
QOTA supports Google Antigravity (Flash 3.8 at 1x), OpenAI Codex (o3-mini High at 2x), and Anthropic Claude Code (Sonnet 4.6 at 4x and Opus / o1 at 8x) with automatic proportional accounting.
Is QOTA free and open source?
Yes, QOTA is 100% free and open-source software distributed under the permissive MIT License on GitHub.
Does QOTA work on Windows and Linux?
Yes! QOTA includes universal packages for Windows 10/11 (with native System Tray integration and WS_EX_TOPMOST pinning) as well as Linux and Android overlay support.
