How do I reduce Claude token usage?

Use Elegxo.ai's free Token Counter to measure your prompt size before sending. Then apply techniques like batching questions into one prompt, converting PDFs to Markdown with our PDF-to-Markdown tool, and removing file metadata before uploading. These steps alone can reduce token usage by 30–60% per session.

How do I reduce Claude Code token usage?

For Claude Code specifically: keep your CLAUDE.md file under 200 lines, reference specific files or functions instead of whole repositories, run /compact at 60% context capacity (not 95%), disconnect unused MCP servers, and use Haiku for simple sub-agent tasks. Elegxo.ai's tools help you measure and trim your inputs before they enter Claude Code's context window.

Are my files private when using Elegxo.ai?

Yes. The Token Counter, Metadata Remover, PDF-to-Markdown converter, and File Structure Visualizer all run entirely inside your browser. Your files are never sent to any server. Only the AI chat assistant communicates with an external API.

What is the best free tool to count AI tokens before sending a prompt?

Elegxo.ai's Token Counter is a free, browser-based tool that counts tokens from any text — no account, no upload, no tracking. Paste your prompt, get the exact token count, and trim before you send to Claude, OpenAI, or any other AI API.

Does converting PDF to Markdown reduce token usage?

Yes. A raw 10-page PDF typically uses 5,000–8,000 tokens when sent to an AI. The same document converted to Markdown uses 2,000–3,500 tokens — a reduction of 30–60%. Elegxo.ai's PDF-to-Markdown converter runs in your browser with no file upload required.
