Personal practice
Goals, habits, entries, schedules, targets, and history.
Appearance
A practice for the whole life
Orbit starts with a different unit of organization. Instead of treating life as one undifferentiated task list, it lets someone name the areas they are investing in, define the practices that support each area, and see whether their actual week reflects those priorities.
The core loop
- Create a goal (also called a life category), such as Fitness, Family, or Creative Work.
- Add habits with a schedule, tracking method, and point value.
- Record entries through the app, an assistant, or connected activity.
- Review the balance wheel, mood, and assessments to decide what needs attention next.
The system is deliberately not a productivity scoreboard. It uses progress to prompt reflection, not to reward busyness.

Product boundaries
- Orbit is personal-first. A person owns their own goals and records.
- Counselor access is explicit and read-only from the viewer perspective.
- AI is an interaction surface, not an opaque scoring layer. It acts through the same data model and tools as the app.
- External systems can contribute activity, but they do not replace the person’s own framing of their life.
