Sidekick launched on Y Combinatorā€™s "Launch YC" recently.

Launch YC: Sidekick: The open source AI support bot for CX teams


ā€SidekickĀ is an open source AI support bot for CX teams.

Founded byĀ Jason Fan and Ayan Bandyopadhyay, a PM and engineer who worked together while solving problems in CX and account security at Robinhood. They're on a mission to handle the grunt work of providing technical support so that CX teams can focus on whatā€™s most valuable for their company.

HOW IT WORKS

Sidekick uses open source tools to fetch, index, and store documentation from a variety of sources, and GPT to generate responses. It helps CX teams automate tasks while ensuring customer interactions remain truthful and helpful, mitigating the risk of missed upsell opportunities or churn. It answers developer questions and automatically keeps your documentation up to date, all while saving engineers time.

šŸ”¹ Scale Support: provides instant answers to technical questions. It works 24/7 to unblock your developer community, so your team can focus on more important tasks.

šŸ”¹ Update Docs: summarizes conversations and submits PRs to update your docs. Your team can review, edit and approve them at any time.

šŸ”¹ Multi Channel: Deploy Sidekick in Discord, Slack, or Discourse.
