ScreenFeel vs Sider

Sider does far more than ScreenFeel and costs more than twice as much. It also sees the tab, not your screen, and it retains what you send.

Sider: A broad browser AI sidebar with chat, agents, image generation and document tools. Paid from $25/mo — That is the Lite tier; higher tiers were advertised at $50 and $100. Free tier: No free tier shown on the vendor page at the time of research. Researched in August 2026.

	ScreenFeel	Sider
Can it see your screen?	Yes — a region, an element, the visible tab, a full scrolling page, or any window on your desktop.	It reads the current tab's content. It cannot capture a region, an element, or another window on your desktop.
Where do captures live?	In your browser, in IndexedDB. There is no server-side gallery to breach, because none was built.	Conversations and uploads are cloud-resident.
What does the AI provider keep?	Nothing. Lenses run on open-weight models under zero data retention, and a build check fails if a configured model is not marked private.	Standard commercial AI terms.
Annotate and redact before sharing?	Eleven-tool editor. Redaction is flattened into the exported pixels, not a removable overlay.	No screenshot annotation or redaction editor.
Searchable history of what you captured?	Yes — full-text search across titles, tags and text read out of the images, all local.	Chat history rather than a searchable library of captures.
Tools for live screen sharing?	Cursor glow, spotlight boxes and arrows drawn locally, plus a warning when your other tab titles are about to be exposed.	None.
Breadth	One job: capture something and understand it. No agents, no image generation — ScreenFeel reads screenshots and never generates images.	Very broad — chat, agents, PDF tools, image generation, translation.
Price	€9.99/mo, or a free tier that runs every lens.	From $25/mo as researched in August 2026.

When Sider is the better choice

If you want one subscription that covers chat, agents, document analysis and image generation, Sider covers far more ground. Competing on breadth is not what ScreenFeel is for.

Try it without deciding

Capture, editing, redaction, the library and the presenter tools work with no account at all, and the free plan runs every lens. Nothing here needs a card.
