It all began in early 2024, when the co-founders of Sidekick, after a long day of working (at a different tech company), had a heartfelt chat about the challenges they personally faced when trying to make meaningful changes using digital tools/apps—building new habits, fighting anxiety, and sustaining personal growth. That evening the realisation sparked - that despite the billions poured into the self-improvement industry, something critical was missing, as despite countless resources, real change was still elusive, because the tools available weren’t designed for us—humans, craving genuine connection and science-backed personalization.

So what? Sidekick was born? well it what first followed by months of intense research, deep dives into data, and countless late nights. The more the team studied, the clearer it became:
‍
The industry was lacking a clear leader—people needed one.
‍
With mental health awareness reaching unprecedented levels, organizations like the WHO demanding innovation, yet the market remained saturated with ineffective, one-size-fits-all solutions. Individuals were left desperate for tools that truly understood them, while governments and insurers began prioritizing mental health, recognizing its critical importance.
‍
That's when armed with determination and a vision, the co-founders of Sidekick decided it was time to step up - The idea of Sidekick was born,

‍Because Change is hard and no one should have to go through it alone.

Today, the Sidekick team is incredibly proud of the journey we’re on to become the first fully science-backed mental health app. Built on rigorous research and strengthened by partnerships with leading universities and innovation hubs across Europe and beyond, we’re committed to transforming lives.And we’re thrilled to have you with us on this extraordinary journey.

With love,
The Sidekick Team
