Description from the maker (original English)
Per-customer API usage analytics: sign up, get ingest snippets, read usage by customer and endpoint.
These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.
We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.
Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 7, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.
create_accountSign up an API for API Meter (free to 250K requests/month). Returns the slug, ingest key, dashboard key and proxy URL. Keys are shown once: store them. Limited to 5 signups per hour per network.
get_ingest_snippetCopy-paste server code that reports each request (method, route, status, latency, customer, plan) to API Meter. Batched, fail-open, never blocks your API.
get_usageMonthly (UTC) usage for one API, grouped by customer, endpoint or plan. Includes an agent bucket: requests whose plan label ends in '-agent' (AI agent / bot traffic, counted and billed like any request).
export_usageBilling-ready monthly usage rows (same as /api/export): view=detail (customer x plan x method x endpoint) or view=customers. Returns JSON rows, or CSV text with format=csv.

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.
It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
Either way works: install it on your computer or connect to the cloud version.
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.1) reached the registry 12 days ago.
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.
