How it works

Add one line to your app’s entry file:
That’s it. burn0 automatically:
  1. Intercepts every outbound HTTP/fetch call
  2. Identifies which service it’s calling (OpenAI, Stripe, Twilio, etc.)
  3. Calculates the cost based on the provider’s pricing
  4. Shows costs in real-time in your terminal

Two modes

Everything stays on your machine. Costs shown in terminal and stored in .burn0/costs.jsonl. No network calls to burn0.dev.
