Your AI side quest · visible, audible, useful
Your coding AI works.Now understand the work.
Dex and Pip stay beside Codex or Claude, turn technical activity into human context, and tell you what matters—without stealing your focus.
sidequesto\DEX>_LIVE- Understanding what you asked for…
- Following work across code, terminal, and browser.
- Checking the installable app—not just the source.
- Ready. Here’s what changed and why it matters.

Let me find the real risk before we call this finished.
Act I · The gap
Your agent knows what happened.You shouldn’t have to decode it.
Long terminal output, hidden approvals, unfamiliar jargon, and silent completion create distance between you and your work.
Act II · The companion
A desktop pet copies the prompt and waits.
SideQuesto interprets, guides, and brings you back at the right moment.
Charming is welcome. Useful is non-negotiable.
Choose your co-pilot
Same intelligence. A voice that fits how you work.
Dr. Dex
Senior clarity. Zero ceremony.
- Finds the consequential detail
- Direct, dry, deeply technical
- Best for experienced builders

Pip
Curious context. No shame in asking.
- Explains jargon briefly
- Friendly, energetic, teachable
- Best for learning while building

The SideQuesto Lab
When the apprentice becomes the master.
Privacy-safe interaction can improve how SideQuesto selects context, explains risk, adapts detail, and coaches different users. Levels advance through benchmarked evidence—not inflated “training hours.”
Current verified milestone: SideQuesto passed the local 100-case SQMB-1-L2 preflight and every required security gate. It is a product capability benchmark, not an independent certification or a score about any user.
Built for access
If the screen is not available, the work still is.
Full-answer reading, meaningful progress, contextual failures, system-mute awareness, and keyboard-first controls make SideQuesto useful—not decorative—for blind and visually impaired builders.
Built for focus
Hear everything important—or only the ending.
Focus mode stays quiet while work happens. Smart mode speaks when context earns your attention. Text remains available even when voice is muted.
Built for real projects
One companion. Every active project.
Prompt Q routes Dex or Pip to the work you choose, keeps project context separate, and shows which coding agent is currently active.
A clear first run
From invitation to useful in four short steps.
No terminal ritual and no mystery permissions. The private beta keeps account, device, preferences, and local-agent access explicit.
Get invited
A private notarized DMG and email-bound activation code arrive together.
Sign in
Use a six-digit email code, Apple, or Google—whichever fits.
Activate one Mac
A protected device key secures access. Transfer later after a fresh sign-in.
Make it yours
Choose coding level, detail, and tone, then connect Codex or Claude once.
Plans that cannot bleed
Start free. Pay for more voice and control—not surprise costs.
Annual Plus and Premium save about 17%—roughly two months compared with paying the current monthly price for 12 months. New eligible annual members can also try every paid feature for 14 days after adding a payment method. Cancel before the trial ends to avoid the annual charge. Hosted voice always has a hard allowance and falls back to on-device Apple voice.

Private beta
Your agent builds. Your companion keeps you with it.
SideQuesto for macOS is preparing for its first notarized private beta. There will be no public DMG button: selected members receive the DMG and a one-device activation code directly by email.
