Screen understanding

The avatar uses a vision-language model to actually look at your screen. Coaching is grounded in what's happening on-screen, not generic descriptions. Free tier: 3 captures/day.

This was the most-requested feature in the entire demo. We shipped it because you asked.

Language persistence

Pick your language and we will say your languages. 12 languages: English, French, German, Spanish (ES + LATAM), Japanese, Korean, Portuguese (BR + PT), Russian, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese.

Game update20 Aug 2026Update 0.14.3 — A clean launch and a better close-upSidekick opens properly now — no more blank window at launch, and the startup animation plays the way it should. Your sidekick's close-up looks better — the camera sits level with them now instead of looking down, with a bit more room in the shot.Game update11 Aug 2026Update 0.14.2 — Cleaner avatars and Italian supportYour sidekick's avatar engine got an upgrade — cleaner shading, smoother edges, and more stable rendering all around. And Sidekick now speaks Italian: the whole app is available in Italian — our 13th language. Change it anytime in Settings.Game update22 Jul 2026Update 0.14.1 — Real lip-sync for your sidekickYour sidekick just got more alive: their mouth now moves in sync with their actual voice — real lip-sync — and they settle naturally back to rest the moment they finish speaking. The plan is simpler now: 10 free minutes of talk every day, and Sidekick Pro gives you a flat 90 minutes daily. Upgrade whenever — the minutes you already used that day don't count against your fresh 90.
