What Can You Do With Tell Sid?

Tell Sid is more than a digital project—it’s a movement to make the online world safer and more supportive for everyone, especially those who need it most.

Sid’s Voice lets you talk to Sid like you’re chatting with a friend. Here’s how to communicate:

Speak Clearly: Use your device’s microphone and ask your question in a natural way.

Be Specific: Focus on what you need help with to get the best response.

Listen to Sid: Sid will reply with clear, practical advice you can act on.

Examples:

You say: “I’m worried my child is being bullied online.”
Sid replies: “I’m sorry to hear that. Here are steps to spot cyberbullying and support your child, including how to talk to them and report issues.”

You say: “My teen spends too much time on their phone.”
Sid replies: “Let’s create a screen time plan. Try setting device-free hours and using these apps to monitor usage.”

Tip: If you’re unsure, just say, “Can you help me with online safety?” Sid will guide you from there.
