Acastus Sidekick Beta
Iris, in your browser's side panel.
Ask about the page you're on, get an error explained, summarize an article, or be guided through a form step by step. Free, with the same usage limits as Acastus on the web. Nothing to install on your PC, no model to download.
Sidekick will be available from the Chrome Web Store and Microsoft Edge Add-ons. Until then, use Acastus at astrixz.com/ai.
How it works
1 · Open it on a tab
Click the Sidekick button in the toolbar (or press Alt+Shift+A). That lets Sidekick see that one tab when you ask it to.
2 · Choose what Iris sees
Chat sends only your words. Page adds the page's visible text. A screenshot or live vision adds an image of the tab.
3 · Iris suggests, you decide
Iris can point at a button or field. Clicking, typing and opening pages always wait for your OK.
Use your account
Link Sidekick to your astrixz.com/ai account with a short code to share your plan, chats and limits.
Privacy, plainly
- Sidekick reads a page only when you ask, and never reads password, payment, one-time-code or hidden fields, or what you type into editors.
- Screenshots are deleted from the Acastus server as soon as Iris has answered, unless you turn on "Keep screenshots".
- Live vision shows a red "LIVE" badge and an on-page indicator, and stops when you switch tabs, leave the site or press Stop.
- Your chats are stored on the Acastus server, like chats on astrixz.com/ai. Sign out or clear Sidekick's data at any time from its settings.
- Iris is a small model and can be wrong; check important answers.
