VoidNotch
VoidNotch
System health, AI token usage across every provider, and live agent status. One glance, one place. And it talks back.
Community edition is free and MIT-licensed. Pro unlocks answering agent prompts straight from the notch.
Hover or tap the notch. Try it — it's the same widget that lives on your Mac.
Live agent status, permission prompts, token counts. No idea what your machine is actually doing.
Both. In the same strip of black glass you already have.
CPU, RAM, temps, battery. Blind to the AI burning through your quota.
CPU, memory, disk, network, battery and health sit next to live token usage from every AI provider you run. Nothing else does both.
Agent started, finished, needs your input, hit a quota wall. The notch expands, changes colour, and plays a custom voice alert. You can look away from the terminal.
MacBook with a notch? Live in the notch. iMac or external display? The same dashboard drops into the menu bar. Auto-detected, switchable live.
Compact: system metrics on one side, AI usage on the other. Configure what each side shows.
Expanded, System tab: CPU load, memory pressure, swap, battery cycles and health, thermal and GPU.
Expanded, Model Usage tab: per-provider session and weekly windows, remaining or used, cost snapshots.

VoidNotch reads usage from the CLI and session data already on your Mac. There is no sign-up and no telemetry. The only network request the app ever makes is Pro license activation and periodic re-validation: it contacts VoidNotch's own licence server, sending your licence key and a machine identifier (your Mac's name plus a hashed hardware ID) so the licence can be bound to your Mac. Purchases are handled separately in your browser by Polar, our payment processor. Nothing else leaves your machine.
Every install includes a free 5-day Pro trial. No card, no account.
Secure checkout via Polar. Refunds handled by Polar. See our Refund Policy.
Pro is in build. Leave your email and get a launch discount.
Yes. Signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple, so Gatekeeper lets it through on first launch.
The downloadable app is Apple Silicon only (arm64) and will not launch on an Intel Mac. VoidNotch is built and tested on Apple Silicon, and its thermal readings rely on Apple Silicon's IOHID sensors (the Intel SMC path is not implemented). Intel support would require building a universal binary from source. macOS 14 or later.
Only if you build from source. The downloadable app is a normal .app.
No. Pro is a one-time purchase per Mac.
That provider degrades to "unavailable" rather than lying to you, and we ship a fix. Community and Pro both get it.
Pro is sold through Polar, our Merchant of Record, and refunds are handled under their terms. Email support@voidnotch.com or reply to your Polar receipt. There is also a free trial and a free Community edition, so you can try before you buy. See our Refund Policy.
