Perplexity Usage Deck

Track every Perplexity account side by side on your Stream Deck - each styled its own way - plus 9 key types, 6 key faces, and pace keys that show your burn rate against the time left in each window. Not another usage ticker. All metrics are accurate, verified and puts YOU in control of style, layout and how you operate within your dashboard.

🎨 Make it yours - 10 theme presets x 6 key faces (bar, pill, donut, ring, sparkline, heatmap) - 60+ looks before you touch an override. Per-key title, colors, and background overrides included.

👥 Accounts with separate looks - name each account, point any key at it, and theme it differently. Styles can be tied to each account! One click applies a look to ALL keys.

📈 3 pace projections - average % per day, burn vs even pace, days until empty - plus heatmaps and sparklines that show the trend, not just the level.

📊 9 key types: Pro Searches, Research, Agentic Research, Labs, a Cycle key, Reset Countdown (pick which window), and the 3 pace keys.

🔔 Alerts on your terms - set Watch, Risk, and Critical alert thresholds where you want them, or use pace-based mode that adapts to the time left in the selected window.

🧪 Try before you connect - demo mode paints sample data with no cookie. Long-press any key opens your Perplexity account settings.

🙏 My commitment

Built and maintained by a developer who uses it daily. Feedback goes straight into the roadmap - bug reports and feature requests encouraged.

When a saved sign-in can't be used, keys used to show Add Account as if nothing was saved. They now say Auth failed, so you know to paste a fresh one in Account Setup. Working sign-ins are unchanged.

Paper and Night are in the theme preset list. Paper is a warm cream key. That cream is darkened so it stays readable on the Stream Deck screen, and empty gauge tracks stay visible too. Pick either one. Apply to all still pushes the look to every key on this deck.
