How you get started

Trust is earned, not asked for.

Name: Sidecar
Brand: Sidecar

You shouldn't have to hand over your business to learn whether a tool is worth it. Start with one vendor agreement. Each rung below is useful on its own, and each one earns the next with results you can check.

Agreement Review

You give: Upload one vendor agreement — the one on your desk, or one you signed years ago.

You get: A verdict, a risk score, the negotiation points with the clause quoted, and every deadline — yours as soon as the analysis finishes, with a human review free on request. The first one is free.

What changes: You find out what the contract actually says, and what it costs you, before you've connected a thing.

Start here

Renewal Watch

You give: Add the agreements you have already signed.

You get: Every renewal, notice window, and obligation tracked, with the last safe day to act — alerts at 30, 14, and 7 days before each notice deadline.

What changes: No window closes without you knowing. “It renewed itself” stops being a thing that happens here.

During the pilot, deadline alerts are switched on per workspace by the Sidecar team. Until then your dates are still tracked, with the last safe day to act, from the day you add an agreement.

Vendor Portfolio

You give: Bring in the rest of your vendors, their invoices, and what you pay.

You get: Duplicate platforms, unused seats, and price creep across the whole stack — each finding quantified and ranked by impact and confidence.

What changes: You stop reviewing contracts one at a time and start running the stack.

AI Chief of Staff

You give: Share your priorities, and connect a data source when you're ready.

You get: Proactive guidance across everything Sidecar knows about your agreements and vendors — surfaced before you ask.

What changes: Sidecar moves from answering questions to raising the right ones.

Where the line is

Sidecar prepares. You decide.

Every rung reads, watches, and prepares. None of them act. Whatever Sidecar assembles — a renewal packet, a vendor email, a redline comparison — is handed to a person on your team, and nothing leaves until that person sends it.

Sidecar never sends an email to a vendor.
Sidecar never signs or commits you to anything.
Sidecar never negotiates with a counterparty.
Sidecar never changes anything in your systems.

That restraint is deliberate. It is what keeps you the only party who can commit your business to anything — and when you want a second pair of eyes on a report, a Sidecar reviewer is a request away.

No rung requires the next. Every rung stands alone.

Most platforms ask for everything up front and deliver value later. Sidecar inverts it. Start with one agreement, keep what's useful, and go deeper only when the results have earned it. Your data stays yours, isolated to your workspace, at every step.
