## Overview

Lindy is an AI teammate for work that connects to a team's existing tools, learns how people operate, and carries out tasks such as managing the inbox and calendar, drafting emails in the user's voice, recording and following up on meetings, pulling reports, and updating CRMs. It is reached through Slack, iMessage, email and a Chrome extension, so users ask for work in the places they already communicate rather than in a separate dashboard.

## FAQ

**How does Lindy pricing work?**

Usage is metered in credits. Team starts at $49.99 per month for 5,000 credits pooled across the workspace, with higher tiers available and top-ups at $10 per 1,000 credits. Everyday requests use roughly 2 to 250 credits, while larger builds can use 1,000 to 2,500.

**Is there a free plan?**

New users get $50 in credits with no credit card required, but the credits last 7 days. After that, paid usage starts at $49.99 per user per month.

**Does Lindy send emails without my approval?**

Actions with outside impact, such as sending emails or publishing documents, require approval. Read-only lookups from approved sources do not.

**Is my data used to train models?**

Lindy states that data is encrypted in transit and at rest and is never used to train models. It lists SOC 2 Type II and GDPR compliance, with HIPAA (signed BAA) on Enterprise.

**What happens when credits run out?**

Credit-using actions pause until the next billing cycle, and admins can buy top-ups. Lindy states there are no surprise bills.

**How are seats billed?**

Every active user is billed, whether they sign up directly, join the workspace, or @mention Lindy in Slack. Slack-joined teammates get a one-time 7-day trial before billing starts.
