Roadmap

Read this first

Shipped: the desktop application

A small desktop application with a tray icon next to the system clock reads the same local cache the command line tool writes, so quota is glanceable without a terminal open. Packaged Windows and Linux builds, and a macOS preview, are attached to the release.

• Status: shipped on Windows and Linux, and a preview on macOS, with a public download for each.
• The Windows build is unsigned: in SmartScreen, choose More info, then Run anyway. The macOS preview is ad hoc signed but not notarised: open it once, then System Settings, Privacy and Security, Open Anyway.
• Updates: the Windows and Linux apps check GitHub and ask before installing a new version. The macOS preview updates by new download.

Shipped: the phone, planned: a native app

The phone pairs from the desktop app by QR code, with nothing typed, and installs to its home screen from there: Android offers to install it, and iOS uses Share, then Add to Home Screen. Phone access is available today with a free account.

• Status: phone pairing and the installable web app are shipped with a free account.
• A native application in an app store remains planned and does not exist today. The paired, installable web app is what replaces the need for one.

Available: OpenLimiter Pro

OpenLimiter Pro is available at $5 a month or $50 a year, with the first 30 days free and no card required. See pricing for what each line actually is.

• Status: available. Sync is on from the moment you sign in.
• More than one account per provider
• Ninety days of hosted history, with a forecast
• Phone push and email alerts. Desktop alerts stay free
• Cloud API spend metering for the keys you enable
• The Ember theme preset
• Everything you can see is free. The command line tool and the desktop local features work with no Pro account.

Following the work

There is no waitlist and no email capture. The honest place to watch is the issue tracker, where the work is planned in public.
