How Orbit works

  1. Connect Messages: Orbit securely reads your local messages database on your Mac. No cloud, no uploading.
  2. Orbit Ranks: An on-device LLM understands your conversations to surface the connections that are slowly drifting away.
  3. One Daily Nudge: You get a single iMessage every day. Reply OK to draft, Snooze, or exclude them forever.

Your data is yours. Period.

Orbit is a local macOS app. An on-device LLM understands your messages right on your Mac — nothing ever leaves your machine or iMessage.

  • No cloud servers or accounts required
  • Your messages never leave your Mac
  • Understood by AI that runs right on your device
  • Everything happens locally, always
