What our research says

GetBotAI

A model-aggregating sidebar is a genuinely convenient shape: one shortcut, several models, sitting on top of the page you are reading. GetBot is one of dozens doing exactly that and distinguishes itself mainly on model breadth. What it does not do is tell you anything, since there is no readable pricing, no company and no country. Try the free tier before assuming anything about the paid one.

Pros

  • Several model families reachable from a single panel
  • Opens over any page with a keyboard shortcut
  • Covers summarise, translate, rewrite and reply on selected text
  • A free tier is available without a subscription

Cons

  • No legible pricing: the site renders client-side and shows nothing on fetch
  • No company name, country or legal entity published
  • Crowded category with near-identical competitors
  • The feature list comes from store listings rather than product documentation

Sider

Sider puts a chat panel on top of whatever page you're on, so you can ask about an article or PDF without copying it into a separate tab. The catch is that heavier use beyond the free daily cap needs a paid tier, and pricing quoted across review sites is inconsistent, so the entry price is worth confirming before committing.

Pros

  • Works as a sidebar on any web page rather than a separate chat tab
  • Routes one prompt to several models (GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Grok)
  • Ships native apps for iOS, Android, Windows, and Mac plus browser extensions
  • Can chat with PDFs and YouTube videos, not just plain text

Cons

  • Free tier is capped at a small number of daily uses
  • Independent pricing write-ups disagree on exact plan costs depending on where you check
  • No public API for developers
