Sidelook sits in the corner of your screen. Hit **Ctrl+Shift+Space** and a small panel opens already knowing which window you were in, with three questions written for it. Pick one, look at the screenshot it took, press **Send with screenshot**. The panel is only as tall as what is in it and grows as you talk. Or hand it something bigger: turn a sketch into a working prototype in the studio, or let it drive a Windows app one approved click at a time. Pick any model in the catalog, OpenAI through ChatGPT, Anthropic through Claude, or a local model in LM Studio or Ollama, go. No API key, nothing metered.

It's experimental and built around how I work. Anthropic models can burn paid Claude usage credits. What your account can reach is up to your plan. The website is a walkthrough, the app is where the sign-in and generation actually happen.
