Where it fits
Understand how Sidekick fits inside Binary Ninja and separate local analysis from model-service data flow.
- Keeping AI assistance inside an existing Binary Ninja workflow
- Exploring relationships in compiled software
- Evaluating code explanations alongside analysis context
Before you start
- Binary Ninja
- Sidekick installation and access
- A configured model backend
Follow the data flow
The official documentation separates locally stored workspace analysis from model requests sent to the Sidekick service. Check the chosen backend and current privacy terms.
Understand the complete cost
The official pricing page lists free and paid hosted plans. Binary Ninja licensing and support eligibility are separate considerations; no fixed price is reproduced here.
Limits to keep in view
- Requires a compatible Binary Ninja installation and appropriate license.
- Hosted model usage has plan-specific limits.
- Local workspace storage does not mean every model request stays offline.
