install tokcount.

tokcount shows a live token count and cost estimate while you type in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Mistral, Copilot, You.com, Anthropic Console, and other major chat surfaces. install it once, keep the counter visible, and stop guessing how long the prompt really is.

The extension sits beside the chat composer, so you can watch tokens and cost before you send the prompt. That is the entire point: fewer surprises, fewer overlong drafts, fewer wasted turns.
three steps

install tokcount, pin it, then open a chat.

no account · no upload · no telemetry
step 01

choose your store

Install from Chrome, Firefox, or Edge. The same extension bundle ships across all three browsers, so you can match the store you already trust.

step 02

pin tokcount

Keep the toolbar icon visible if you want a quick glance at the counter, then leave the extension active on the sites you already use for prompts.

step 03

write with the counter on

Open ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or one of the supported chat surfaces and watch the count update as you type. If the prompt gets long, you will see it immediately.

tokcount is meant to be boring in the best way: always on, always local, and easy to check before the send button.

faq

install questions, answered plainly.

Does tokcount need an account?

No. Install it and use it locally. The extension does not require sign-up or any prompt upload to show a live count.

Does my prompt text leave the browser?

No. tokcount is built to keep the counting inside the browser. It is a local helper for prompt length and cost estimation, not a remote analysis service.

Which browsers work?

Chrome, Firefox, and Edge all have install paths. If you use a Chromium browser such as Brave or Opera, the Chrome store link is the quickest route.
