Introduction

Every LLM call, every shell command, every browser action an AI agent performs has an energy cost. As agent usage scales to millions of daily operations, these costs add up. Enterprises need ESG reports. Developers need to know which models are cheapest to run. Users deserve transparency.

Agent Carbon Footprint Tracker estimates energy consumption and CO2 emissions for every operation an AI agent performs, using the EcoLogits bottom-up Life Cycle Assessment methodology (ISO 14044). No hardware access needed, no external API keys, no cloud telemetry. Just open-source math.

Features

  • LLM call estimation — Calculates GPU energy from model active parameters and token counts, using published EcoLogits regression models
  • Exec command estimation — CPU TDP × utilization × duration for local shell commands
  • Browser operation estimation — Page-complexity-weighted power draw for browser automation
  • 30+ model database — Pre-configured parameters for GPT-4/4o/o1/o3, Claude 3/3.5/4, Gemini, DeepSeek, Llama, Mistral, Qwen, GLM, and more
  • Daily / weekly / monthly reports — Formatted markdown or JSON output with trend
