Sidecar is an operations platform for local service businesses, operated by BGT Labs LLC. It brings together CRM, sales pipelines, scheduling, jobs, crews, invoicing, goals, and automation, with Max AI layered on as an βalways-onβ business assistant for answering questions, drafting estimates, following up with customers, and generating reports.
Max AI is divided into three tiers: Assisted, Rhythmic, and Autonomous. Assisted focuses on on-demand support, including AI Estimate Builder, Blueprint Intake, Smart Catalog, task assignment, and omnichannel messaging across email/SMS/WhatsApp/RCS. Rhythmic adds customer intelligence, performance coaching, business health insights, and an AI Voice Agent. Autonomous is aimed at delegated workflows such as customer concierge, crew coordination, and territory expansion, with human-in-the-loop controls. The materials do not disclose the underlying model, Chinese-language capabilities, or accuracy metrics, so its generation quality should not be over-interpreted.
The platform has a Free version, which includes 1 team member, up to 50 customer records, and 30 days of Max AI Assisted. Paid platform plans range from Operator at $49/month and Team at $99/month to Pro at $199/month, with custom pricing for enterprise/franchise use. Max AI is an add-on package: Assisted is free for the first month and then $149/month, Rhythmic is $299/month, and Autonomous is $799/month. Higher tiers require using Assisted for more than 30 days first.
The strengths are its focused use case and complete workflow coverage, making it suitable for managing leads, quotes, scheduling, invoicing, and field operations in one system. Its pricing is lower than the Jobber and ServiceTitan benchmarks it cites, and it states that there are no hidden per-user markups. The drawbacks are that the AI packages cost more than the base platform, and there is no clear information on privacy compliance, data encryption, model providers, or API openness. The Free version also does not include payment processing.
Sidecar is better suited to local service teams in markets such as the United States, including home repair, home services, contractors, landscaping, and cleaning businesses, as well as owner-operators looking to move from spreadsheets to an all-in-one system. Access from China, payment support, and compatibility with local SMS/WeChat ecosystems are unknown. For deployment in China, key items to verify include network availability, credit card payments, time zones/SMS numbers, Chinese voice support, and data compliance. Alternatives to compare include Jobber and ServiceTitan; in China, it should be evaluated alongside CRM, ticketing, and field service management products built around the WeCom ecosystem.
