What makes it different

Most AI assistants start fresh with every conversation and know nothing about you. sideBar is different: it builds a persistent picture of you from your notes, tasks, saved websites, files, and memories, and brings that context into every conversation automatically. When you ask sideBar a question, it can pull from your notes, check your tasks, or browse the web on your behalf, without you having to switch between apps or copy things around.

sideBar also has its own identity and soul: a name, a tone of voice, a set of values, and a sense of purpose that evolve as it learns more about how you work. It is not a generic chat interface. It is an assistant that adapts to you over time.

How it works

sideBar works with Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google. You bring your own API key and pay those providers directly for the AI usage you generate. There is no subscription fee for sideBar itself, and you are never locked into a single model or company.

The Skills Store lets you extend sideBar with additional capabilities: transcribing audio and video, connecting to third-party services, and more. Skills run automatically during conversations when they are relevant, so you get the benefit without having to think about it.
