Summary
Sidekick is an AI-powered automation tool that allows users to build Zapier-style workflows through natural language chat. Users describe their desired automation in chat, and the AI handles all technical complexity including API integrations, loops, conditionals, and error handling. The platform provides a visual representation of workflows and supports integrations with popular services like Gmail, Calendar, Docs, Notion, and Slack, with pricing based on runs rather than individual actions.
