Frequently asked questions
What is Sidekick Pro?
Sidekick Pro puts AI agents to work for you. It answers your calls and texts from its own phone number, triages your Gmail and calendar in real time, joins Zoom and Google Meet meetings to take notes, performs browser tasks for you, and remembers your people, projects, and preferences across web, mobile, and voice.
How does the AI receptionist work?
Your assistant gets a dedicated phone number. In Receptionist Mode it answers calls and texts 24/7, screens callers, handles FAQs from your plain-English instructions, takes messages, and only alerts you when something really needs your attention.
Can Sidekick Pro join my meetings?
Yes — and it is far more than a note-taker. The AI meeting assistant joins Zoom and Google Meet calls, captures notes, decisions, and next steps, and saves them to memory so you can recall any meeting later from any device. Call on it during the meeting and it chimes in by voice, runs research on the spot, and drafts documents.
How much does Sidekick Pro cost?
Solo is $19 per month for one person. Business is $49 per month and covers the whole team at one flat price, with unlimited users. Both include monthly model usage and optional on-demand usage. Enterprise plans with SSO, BYOK, and custom requirements are priced by sales.
Which platforms does Sidekick Pro support?
Sidekick Pro works on the web, in a Chrome extension, on iOS and Android, on the Mac desktop app, and over phone and voice — with the same assistant and the same memory everywhere.
Is my data used to train AI models?
No. Your private assistant data is never used to train frontier-lab models, and you can switch between AI providers freely — there is no vendor lock-in.
