Orbit for Founders
From idea to running app. Write your requirements, the agent builds while you direct. See your app in the browser. Click anything that's wrong. Tell the agent to fix it.
How it works
You describe. The agent builds. You see the result. Repeat.
Orbit has a built-in markdown editor. Describe what you want — features, user flows, how it should look. The agent reads this as context while building.
The agent writes real code using standard frameworks. You can watch it work in the editor. It runs your app in the terminal. You see everything.
Orbit has an embedded browser. Your running app is right there — no switching windows. The agent takes screenshots of it too, so it sees what you see.
Click an element in your running app, then tell the agent what to change. "Make this button bigger." "Move this section above the fold." "Add a login form here." Done.
Not a no-code tool
Browser-based builders (Bolt, Lovable, Replit) are fast for prototypes but your project lives on their servers. When you outgrow it, you export and start over.
Orbit is a native desktop app. Your project lives on your machine as real files with real git. The agent writes standard code that any engineer can continue. You're not locked in.
What to know
macOS only for now. Windows and Linux are on the roadmap.
AI-powered, not magic. The agent is very capable but it works best when you give it clear direction. Vague prompts get vague results.
Deploy is on you. Orbit builds your app but doesn't deploy it yet. You'll use services like Vercel or Railway. One-click deploy is on the roadmap.

Questions
Do I need to know how to code?
You need to clearly describe what you want. The clearer your vision, the better the output. Orbit's agent handles implementation — you direct.
What can I build with this?
Web applications, landing pages, internal tools, API services. The agent writes real code with standard frameworks. Your project lives on your machine as real files with real git.
What happens when I need to scale?
Hire engineers. They inherit real code built with standard frameworks — not a no-code export. You'll understand your own product because you directed every decision.
Is this free?
Free during early access. Sign in with your Claude account (even free tier) or bring your own Anthropic API key. No token markup.
How is this different from Bolt or Lovable?
Unlike browser-based builders, your project lives on your machine. Real files. Real git. When you outgrow a prototype, you're already in a professional environment.
