Built in the open
A screen-aware assistant should be inspectable. Orbit's entire codebase is public so you can verify every privacy claim and understand exactly what runs on your Mac.
The Repository
Read the source, audit the privacy claims, file issues, or build Orbit yourself. SwiftUI native app + Next.js web surface, all in one repo.
Sponsor the development
Orbit is independent and built to last. If it makes you more productive, help keep the project sustainable.
What's inside
SwiftUI + AppKit
Native macOS app with menu bar panel, overlay cursor, HUD, and push-to-talk.
Codex Runtime
Bundled OpenAI Codex for session management, browser control, and tool execution.
Next.js Website
This website — also open source, built with React 19, Tailwind v4, and Framer Motion.
Contributing
Contributions that make Orbit more useful, more understandable, or more reliable are welcome. For large product changes, start with an issue so we can align on direction. The goal is to keep Orbit fast, legible, and trustworthy.
Build from source
Clone the repo, open Orbit.xcodeproj in Xcode, set your signing team, and hit Run. The web surface runs with npm run dev. Full instructions in the README.
