Budgetary provides a pre‑flight token‑spend estimate tool for AI coding agents. The service returns a token range, scenario, and confidence signal before a coding task runs, and reports "no read" when it lacks coverage. It is offered free and without usage limits, and integrates via an MCP server or plugins for agents such as Claude Code, VS Code, and others.
