Terms of Service
Orbit is an early-stage product built by one person. These terms set out what you can expect from it, what it expects from you, and where the limits sit — written to be read, not skimmed past.
The short version
Your data stays yours
You keep ownership of everything you put into Orbit, and you can export or delete it at any time.
Limits gate adding, not access
Passing 500 contacts stops you adding new ones. Nothing already in your orbit is hidden or deleted.
AI output needs review
Drafts, summaries, and suggestions can be wrong. Read them before you send them to a real person.
Use it in good faith
No spam, no scraping, no uploading data about people you have no right to hold.
These Terms of Service (the Terms) are an agreement between you and Jason Pereira, who operates Orbit (we, us). By creating an account, joining the waitlist, or otherwise using Orbit, you agree to them. If you don't agree, don't use the product.
The Privacy Policy is part of this agreement and describes how your information is handled. Where the two documents overlap, the Privacy Policy governs privacy matters.
The summary cards above are a convenience, not a substitute — the sections below are the operative terms.
Orbit is a personal networking tracker. It stores the people you meet, keeps a history of your conversations, imports contact data you provide, and uses AI to help you decide who to follow up with and what to say. It is a tool for organising your own relationships.
Orbit is not a professional service. Nothing it produces is legal, financial, employment, or career advice, and it does not guarantee interviews, introductions, replies, or job offers. Decisions you make with it are yours.
You must be at least 13 years old, and at least the age of digital consent where you live, to use Orbit. If you are using it on behalf of an organisation, you confirm you have the authority to bind that organisation to these Terms. You may not use Orbit if you are barred from doing so under applicable law or sanctions.
Accounts are handled by our authentication provider, Clerk. You are responsible for keeping your credentials secure and for everything that happens under your account. Tell us promptly if you believe it has been accessed by someone else.
Provide accurate account information, and keep it current. One person, one account — don't share logins or resell access. Orbit records when you accepted these Terms and which version.
You can delete your account yourself, at any time, in Settings under Data and privacy. Deleting it erases your Orbit data, cancels an active Orbit Pro subscription, and removes your sign-in.
When using Orbit, you agree not to:
You are the sender of any message you dispatch through Orbit, and you are responsible for its content and for complying with the rules that govern it.
You keep ownership of everything you put into Orbit — contacts, notes, interactions, messages, and the rest. We claim no ownership over it.
You grant us a limited, non-exclusive licence to host, store, process, transmit, and display that content strictly to operate the product for you: rendering it in the app, running the features you invoke, sending it to the providers you have enabled, and creating derived artifacts such as summaries and embeddings. That licence exists so the software can function, and it ends when you delete the content or your account.
You are the data controller
For contact records about other people, you decide what is collected and why. You confirm you have the right to store that information and to contact those people, and you agree to honour their requests — including deletion — using the controls Orbit provides.
We don't use your content to train our own models, and we don't sell it. See the Privacy Policy for the full picture.
Orbit integrates with services including Clerk, Vercel, Neon, Stripe, AI providers (Google Gemini, OpenAI, Anthropic), Apollo, Resend, Twilio, Google (Gmail, Contacts and Calendar), Microsoft (Outlook contacts), Eventbrite, Luma and Partiful. The Privacy Policy lists every service that receives data and why. Each has its own terms and privacy policy, and your use of them through Orbit is also subject to those.
Where you supply your own API keys, you are contracting directly with that provider: their usage limits, costs, and content rules apply to you, and any charges they bill are yours to pay. Orbit adds no markup to what your providers charge, and equally takes no responsibility for it. We are not responsible for a third-party service changing, degrading, rate-limiting, or discontinuing what it offers, and any given integration may be removed from Orbit if it becomes impractical to maintain.
AI features are optional, and nothing is sent until you use one. When you do, relevant content from your Orbit data is sent to an AI provider you selected so it can generate a response. On every plan, including Orbit Pro and Orbit Lifetime, AI runs on an API key you supply, and that provider bills you directly.
Some AI work runs in the background: search indexing, and — only if you turn it on — deriving timeline events from imported LinkedIn conversations, which shows an estimated cost before you do and is capped at 300 conversations a day. Settings shows the last 30 days of AI usage and its estimated cost; the bill itself comes from your provider.
AI output is probabilistic. It can be inaccurate, outdated, incomplete, or entirely fabricated, including about real people you have stored in Orbit. Review anything the model produces before you rely on it or send it to someone. You remain responsible for every message that leaves your account, regardless of which tool drafted it.
Orbit is in early access. Features may be added, changed, or removed at any time; the product may be unavailable for maintenance, provider outages, or plain breakage; and there is no uptime commitment or service level agreement. Keep your own copy of anything you cannot afford to lose — the JSON export in Settings exists for exactly this.
The Free Plan covers up to 500 contacts and costs nothing. Paid plans — Orbit Pro, billed monthly or annually, and Orbit Lifetime, a one-time purchase — lift that cap. Orbit Lifetime is not limited in number and does not sell out; its introductory price of $25 applies to the first 100 buyers, after which it becomes $75. Current prices are on the pricing page and apply from the moment you subscribe.
Prices may change. Existing subscribers get notice before a change takes effect and can cancel instead of accepting it. If something goes wrong with a charge, write to us — a solo product would rather fix a billing mistake than argue about it.
The Orbit software, interface, design, and name belong to us or our licensors. These Terms grant you a personal, non-transferable, revocable right to use the product as offered — nothing more. You may not use its branding or present the product as your own.
If you send us feedback or ideas, we may use them freely to improve Orbit, with no obligation or payment to you.
You can stop using Orbit at any time, and delete some or all of your data, or your whole account, from Settings. We may suspend or terminate access if you materially breach these Terms, if your use puts the service or other people at risk, or if we discontinue the product — and we will give notice where it is reasonable to do so.
Export what you want to keep before you go. After termination, your Orbit data is deleted as described in the Privacy Policy. The sections on your content licence, disclaimers, liability, indemnification, and governing law survive termination.
Orbit is provided as is and as available, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, or uninterrupted operation. We do not warrant that the product will meet your requirements, that enrichment or AI output will be correct, or that defects will be fixed.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions. Where that is the case, this section applies only to the extent permitted, and your mandatory statutory rights are unaffected.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost opportunities, lost goodwill, or lost or corrupted data, arising from your use of Orbit — even if we were told such damages were possible.
Our total liability for all claims relating to Orbit is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us for the product in the twelve months before the claim, or one hundred US dollars.
Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including for fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence.
You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims, damages, and reasonable costs (including legal fees) arising from your content, your messages sent through Orbit, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right — including the privacy rights of people whose details you store.
These Terms are governed by the laws applicable where the operator of Orbit is established, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and the courts of that place have jurisdiction over disputes arising from them. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory rules in your own country of residence, or of the right to bring proceedings there where local law gives you that right.
Before filing anything formal, please write to us — nearly every dispute at this size is faster to resolve with an email than a filing.
These Terms will change as Orbit does. When they do, the Last updateddate at the top of this page is revised, and material changes are announced in the app before they take effect. Continuing to use Orbit afterwards means you accept the updated Terms; if you don't, stop using the product and delete your account.
Questions about these Terms — including anything that reads ambiguously — can go through the contact page. It reaches the person who wrote them.
Orbit is small enough that you can ask the person who built it and get an actual answer.
