TBX / BURNMETER v1

How much are you burning?

Paste anything you feed an AI. We estimate the tokens, price it across 12 models, score the waste, and hand you a leaner version. Everything runs in your browser.

INPUTNOTHING LEAVES YOUR BROWSER
HOW THE ESTIMATE WORKS
  • — Tokens are counted with the o200k tokenizer in your browser: exact for GPT models, ~±10% for other vendors (each has its own tokenizer). While it loads, a chars-per-token heuristic (±15%) fills in.
  • — Output tokens are assumed from your usage type (e.g. an agent run assumes 6x output per input token). The assumption is always shown.
  • — Pricing is checked daily against public list prices (last change: 2026-07-11). Cached-input discounts are not applied.
  • — The leaner version is heuristic compression: it strips filler, ceremony and duplicates. Review it before use.
WHAT THE BURN SCORE MEASURES
  • Verbosity (35%): social ritual and filler. The model doesn't need “please”. It bills for it anyway.
  • Redundancy (30%): repeated phrases. Saying it twice doesn't make it truer.
  • Bloat (20%): size versus a reasonable baseline for your usage type.
  • Ritual (15%): decorative markdown, separators, ASCII ceremony.
  • Agent runs get a 1.3x multiplier. Agents amplify everything, including your mistakes.
