About AI Usage Ball
See Claude, Codex / ChatGPT, and Antigravity limits before they interrupt your flow. AI Usage Ball turns remaining allowance and reset times into animated liquid orbs on your macOS desktop and menu bar. It runs locally, talks only to the providers’ own services, and is source-available for audit. Built for Apple Silicon on macOS 12+. Launch offer: the first 100 people who try AI Usage Ball and share genuine product feedback can apply for a free lifetime personal license.
About Islet
Most notch utilities just draw a static shape over the cutout. Islet actually behaves like iPhone's Dynamic Island: native spring-physics expand/collapse, real-time HUDs for volume and brightness, a live music glance with full playback controls, one-tap audio output switching (no System Settings detour), plus calendar, weather, and a file tray you can drop into from anywhere. Built natively in Swift + AppKit, not Electron, fast and fullscreen-aware.
