Who Lindy is best for
Founders, executives and small teams who lose hours to inbox, scheduling and follow-up admin and want one assistant across email, calendar and meetings. Choose it over workflow builders when you would rather give instructions in plain language than design automations.
Key features
- Drafts, schedules and replies to email from within your inbox
- Joins meetings and lets the team query shared recordings
- Integrations with Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack, Notion, HubSpot and 1,000+ apps, plus MCP servers
- Browser-based computer use for tools without an integration
- Available through iMessage for use on the go
- Choice of AI model per task on paid plans
Why it’s worth it
It takes over the repetitive communication work that fills a founder's day, such as inbox triage, follow-ups and CRM updates, with very little setup.
Things to consider
- Credit-based billing means heavy use needs top-ups at extra cost, and actions pause when credits run out
- Every active user in a workspace is billed, which adds up for larger teams
- Giving an assistant authority to send email on your behalf needs clear rules and review to avoid mistakes

FAQ
Lindy: common questions
What is Lindy used for?
Lindy is mainly used as an executive-style assistant: triaging and replying to email, preparing for and recording meetings, scheduling, and keeping the CRM up to date. It can also build its own integrations or use a browser when a tool is not connected.
How much does Lindy cost?
There is a free trial with $50 of credits for 7 days, then the Team plan is $29.99 per active user per month with 3,000 credits each. Extra credits cost $10 per 1,000.
Is Lindy good for small businesses?
Yes, it suits small teams that want admin handled without building workflows. Keep an eye on credit consumption, because busy inboxes and frequent meetings use credits faster.
