SidepawWorks with Claude Code
Your best friend, by your side while you work.
We turn your dog or cat into an animated cartoon that sits beside your Claude Code chats. Ears up while you type, nose down while it searches, trotting while it works, and a nap when things go quiet.
Launch price $99 through December 31, then $129. Made from your photos, ready within 5 business days.
How it works
Three steps, about five minutes of your time.
Send us their photos
Six to ten phone photos (front, side, lying down, their favourite toy) and a few questions about their markings and personality.
Approve the preview
We build your pet as a 3D cartoon and send you stills. One round of changes is included, so we get that crooked ear right.
Install in one line
Unzip the folder, ask Claude to run one command, and your pet is beside your next chat. We help if anything gets stuck.
Ten moods
They follow what your AI is doing.
What you get
Your pet, made just once, and yours to keep.

Where it runs
The animated panel needs Claude Code in the Claude desktop app (the Code tab). It's tested on Mac. On Windows, ask us first.
In Claude Code in a terminal, the panel shows your pet's mood as words only, without the drawing.
Other AI tools and chat websites are next. Tell us which one you use in the order form.

Questions
Good questions.
Does it read my code or send my data anywhere?
No. To pick a mood it only looks at which tool Claude is calling, whether Claude is thinking or answering, and whether the chat box has text in it. Nothing is sent anywhere.
How do I install it?
You get a zip. Unzip it somewhere permanent (Documents is good), then ask Claude to run claude plugin install yourpet --marketplace ~/Documents/yourpet-mod. Start a new session and your pet is there. Keep the folder: Claude reads your pet from it.
Do cats work?
Yes, dogs and cats. For other pets, ask us first.
Does it work with ChatGPT, Cursor or other AI tools?
Not yet. Claude Code comes first; a version for other AI tools and chat websites is next. Tell us what you use in the order form and we'll let you know.
What if I don't love it?
You'll see a preview before anything is final, with one round of changes included (extra rounds are $25). We refund in full if we haven't started modelling yet.
What happens to my photos?
We use them only to make your pet. We only show your pet in our gallery if you say we can.
Can my whole team use one pet?
Yes, that's the Team mascot: one pet that everyone on the team installs.
