## Cost Tracking
Display real-time costs of your session at the bottom of the Goose Desktop window.

<TabItem value="ui" label="Goose Desktop" default>
To manage live cost tracking:
1. Click `⚙️` in the upper right corner
2. Click `Advanced Settings`
3. Scroll to `App Settings` and toggle `Cost Tracking` on or off.
The session cost updates dynamically as tokens are consumed. Hover over the cost to see a detailed breakdown of token usage. If multiple models are used in the session, this includes a cost breakdown by model. Ollama and local deployments always show a cost of $0.00.
Pricing data is regularly fetched from the OpenRouter API and cached locally. The `Advanced Settings` tab shows when the data was last updated and allows you to refresh.
These costs are estimates only, and not connected to your actual provider bill. The cost shown is an approximation based on token counts and public pricing data.
