Inferock-bench is a local proxy that sits between your app and OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or OpenRouter shaped calls. It captures per-call token usage, failures, and retries, then generates an independent receipt showing what you were billed and how much you're actually overpaying for.
The independent receipt idea is really practical. It's nice to have a way to verify token usage instead of relying only on provider dashboards.
@athar_jatoi Thank you! It always felt a little odd that the only record of what we bought came from the company selling it, so now you can keep your own. Glad it's practical!

The retry tracking caught my eye. silent retries are probably one of the easiest ways for API costs to creep up without anyone noticing.
@sansa_grey Right, retries are the sneakiest of the bunch: the answer still arrives, everything looks fine, and the bill just grows. Making those visible was one of the first things we wanted for ourselves.
Tracking retries alongside failures is a smart addition. Those hidden retries can quietly become a big part of the bill.
@desire_waterman Thank you! That matches our experience, no single retry looks expensive, it's the accumulation that stings. Glad that part stood out to you.
Love that this sits as a local proxy instead of asking me to route traffic through another cloud service. Keeps my API keys and data where they belong.

@peter_victor everything stays on your machine, we never see it.
The retry tracking caught my attention. I’ve seen failed requests become surprisingly expensive, so being able to trace each call would be useful to me.

@rahul_manjhi1 Failed requests being the expensive ones is such a strange truth of this stuff, you pay and get nothing usable back. Hope it earns a spot in your setup!
changing the baseURL and apiKey instead of rewriting the application is a nice touch. makes this much easier to test on an existing project.

@upendra_kumar17 that was a rule we set for ourselves, if trying it takes more than a minute nobody will ever find out what their calls really cost. Two settings in, and your app never knows the difference. Would be curious how it goes on your existing project.
Which API call actually cost me this money? is a question every AI app eventually needs to answer.
Inferock Bench
@santosh__kumar9 exactly, every team hits that question sooner or later. We just want the answer already sitting there when it happens.
