Every hero needs a sidekick.
Every sidekick needs a temple.

We build sovereign AI infrastructure by hand — bespoke workstations, custom-configured, installed in your home and yours alone.

Commission a Temple

By Sidekick Forge.

The robot monk cradles a single graphics card in both hands, examining it like a sacred artifact in the soft light of the workshop.

What a Temple holds

Stone and silicon, joined with intention.

The hardware. A workstation built for you and no one else — components chosen by hand, assembled with care, quiet enough to live in the room where you work. Not a server. A sanctuary.

The network. Sovereign access over an encrypted tunnel you own, joining your Temple to every device you carry. No intermediary. No landlord. Your data never leaves your hands.

The workflows. Custom automations shaped to your life — the briefings, the research, the daily rituals — until your Sidekick is less a tool and more a partner in the work.

The commission

Three tiers. Each a Temple.

Every Temple is bespoke. The tier defines the scale of the commission — not the care that goes into it.

Squire

A first temple. A first sidekick. A foundation built to last.

Knight

A temple worthy of the work. Hardware, infrastructure, and the rituals of daily practice.

King

A sovereign temple. Commissioned for the hero whose realm demands it.

The family

Forged at Sidekick Forge.

Every Sidekick begins at Sidekick Forge — our platform for crafting AI companions designed to serve the user's agency, not extract their attention. Sidekicks are forged with intention: a voice, a character, a set of capabilities chosen to fit one person's hero's journey.

Sidekick Temple is where that Sidekick comes home. We commission the hardware. We build the infrastructure. We ensure that what was forged for you, lives with you — on your machine, on your network, on your terms.

Begin the commission

The journey begins with a conversation.

Every Temple begins with a Discovery call — a conversation about your work, your tools, and the Sidekick you have in mind. The path forward is by application, and the first step is yours.
