Why I built Sidekick

I built Sidekick for my own family.

I wanted my two kids to have the freedom to ride their bikes and explore the neighbourhood, but I wasn’t ready to give them a smartphone or smartwatch.

I just wanted to be able to reach them when it mattered.

And, more than anything, I wanted to protect their childhood just a little longer.

I just wanted to be able to reach them when it mattered.

That is why I created Sidekick – to protect their childhood just a little longer.
