Discover alternative sites and apps with Sidely, a browser extension that overlays icons on websites to save you time searching for options.
Sidely is a browser extension available for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge that aims to provide users easy access to alternative websites and applications. As you browse the web, Sidely will overlay small icons on websites suggesting alternatives that you can quickly switch to with one click.
For example, if you are browsing YouTube, Sidely may show icons allowing you to easily jump to alternative video sites like Vimeo or DailyMotion. Similarly, if you are on Amazon, you may see icons for other shopping sites. Sidely maintains a frequently updated directory of hundreds of popular sites along with recommended alternatives in various categories.
The main value proposition of Sidely is saving users time in discovering alternatives. Rather than needing to open a new tab and search for alternative products, apps, services etc., the options are presented to you dynamically as you browse. This allows for easy comparison shopping, finding sites that better suit your needs, or discovering new apps and services you may not have been aware of otherwise.
Sidely is free to install and use. The interface is clean, simple, and non-intrusive. It's easy to try out alternative sites when you see their icon, without needing to leave your current page until you find one you want. For those interested in easily exploring alternatives to common sites and apps, Sidely aims to simplify the process.
