1 BIT DATA

> Where did your data go?

// WHAT IT DOES

// WHY IT EXISTS

On a mobile hotspot or a metered plan, the question "where did my data go this month?" is surprisingly hard to answer. macOS's built-in Network Utility only shows live speed. Third-party tools tend to be expensive, send your usage to a server, or both. 1 Bit Data is the small tool that should have come with the OS: live, local, honest, with the same terminal aesthetic as everything else from this studio.
