Other tools make the schedule. Orbit runs everything around it.
A new kind of operating system for how your team actually runs — drafting the week, holding everything your program knows, surfacing what changed before you ask, briefing your people, and resolving the scramble when someone's out. Guided by HAL.
When something changes, most teams start texting. Orbit just handles it.
Someone's out. A chain of texts, calls, and "who can cover?" that can run half an hour — the most familiar chaos in any program. Orbit collapses it into one structured event.
Wednesday AM · North
HAL ranked three candidates by fairness, hours, and credentials. Dr. Chen picked up one extra session — within hours, no conflicts.

Callouts are just one — the same collapse runs across the program
Meet HAL.
Ask in plain English — who's covering Wednesday, can someone pick up a session, what does my supervisor need to see — and HAL answers from the same data your team works in. HAL drafts; you decide.
- Asks before changing anything
- Shows its work, every step
- Honest about what it doesn't know
Orient. Educate. Schedule. Connect.
Orbit doesn't just manage schedules. It guides your team through them — where they belong, what they need to know, and how the week holds together. HAL is the through-line.
Orient
Every person wakes up knowing where they belong — and what matters today.
- Briefing — a personalized morning read, narrated by HAL before the first coffee.
- My Orbit — one card per person, per day. Everything you need, nothing you don't.
Educate
What your team needs to know — the moment it becomes relevant.
- Pre-Flight — protocols, equipment, and room notes, tailored to the role walking in.
- Signals — role-scoped announcements and updates. The right people hear the right things.
Schedule
People, spaces, and time — coordinated in real time, fair by design.
- HAL drafts, you confirm — describe what you need; preview, edit, commit. Every step undoable.
- Mayday & compliance — callouts resolve through a ranked coverage cascade, rules watched in the background.
Connect
Your team isn't a list of names. It's the people you actually work with.
- Your Orbit — the people you're with today, by site and session. Names before you walk in.
- Props — peer recognition, in the moment, where the work happens.
They build it. Your team lives it. And the system gets smarter.
Everyone wakes up knowing exactly where they belong.
Builds the schedule
A multi-dimensional workspace for assigning people to rooms, sessions, and sites. HAL drafts first cuts; drag-and-drop refines them; credentials and fairness are enforced live.
- Grid + Board views, always in sync
- HAL drafts; you confirm before it ships
- Closures, blocks, and cohorts built in
- Drop in the handbook — Orbit files what matters
Lives the schedule
Each person sees a personalized daily card — not a read-only copy of the grid. Their assignment is enriched with intelligence that doesn't exist in the coordinator's view.
- Site prep for unfamiliar locations
- Swap shifts and pick up slots through HAL
- Rate sessions — next week adjusts
- Ask the handbook — get a cited answer
Every action your team takes — a rating, a swap, a preference — flows back into HAL's engine. The more your team uses it, the better the schedule gets.
Orbit notices what changed, so your team doesn't have to.
Subscribe to a slice of your schedule — open coverage gaps in my program, PGY-1s on call this block, idle rooms at our south site — and Orbit pings you the moment the answer changes. Saved Views compose the slice, Watched Views keep an eye on it, and Mission Brief curates what the week actually needs from you.
The answers were always in the handbook. Now you just ask.
Drop in a handbook, SOP, or policy — typed, scanned, even a phone photo of a binder page. Orbit reads it, files what matters where it belongs, and answers your team's questions in plain English, citing the source and page. The knowledge that used to live in a PDF nobody reopens now lives in Mission Memory — and answers on demand.
Park in Lot C at North — that's the staff lot, not the visitor deck.

I lived the 9:42 scramble every week — and watched everything my team actually ran on live in group texts and handbooks no scheduling tool ever saw. So I built the one that does.
