# Sidekick

Sidekick is a **AI-powered sidebar built directly into the Editor**, designed to streamline and speed up the designing process in Conducttr.

| Less need to manually create injects one-by-one                         | Write directly into the MEL with LISA                                       |
| Designers can move from raw ideas to working exercises faster than ever | Generate exercise ideas/injects/personas out of natural conversation        |

### What does Sidekick look like?

Sidekick is a **purple sidebar** on the left-hand side of the Editor with the "magic icon" (sparkles) at the bottom:

<div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/iSn3S6lfCRNNWmNU2rwF" alt="" width="369"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

## Assistants

Assistants are AI helpers that make building and expanding exercises **as simple as having a conversation**. The assistants you see in Sidekick build on the ones available in AXS, now integrated into the Editor to streamline workflows and reduce tool-switching.

The result is a faster, more creative way to:

* Turn an idea into an exercise
* Keep adding to it as the conversation evolves
* Reduce the manual work of building large exercises

{% hint style="warning" %}
Only LISA writes directly into the MEL. Other assistants output .csv files for import.
{% endhint %}

### :zap:Sidekick sessions

Assistants remember requests only within the current exercises (until the **sessions expires after 60 days**, after which, the session cannot be recovered). To start a new interaction with an assistant, a new exercise must be created. Assistant sessions are not copied when an exercise is duplicated.
