Orbit docs

Orbit takes a natural-language brief — "Senior fintech engineers in Berlin with payments experience" — runs a multi-source search, and returns a ranked, deduped list of people with LinkedIn URLs, titles, emails, and a per-person verdict explaining why each matches.

Pick your surface

REST API

Mint a key → POST /v1/search → poll → export CSV. Any language, any stack.

TypeScript SDK

npm i @orbit/sdk → typed client with auto-pagination and webhook verification.

MCP server

npx -y orbit-mcp → gives Claude (or any MCP client) orbit_search, orbit_status, orbit_export.

Claude Code plugin

/plugin install orbit → slash commands + market-map skill + Obsidian graph view.

ChatGPT app

Install the Orbit app in ChatGPT → search from any conversation. OAuth, no key.

How a project works

Every surface follows the same flow:

Submit a brief. The API returns a projectId immediately.
Wait. The project runs asynchronously — Orbit searches across multiple sources and evaluates each person against your criteria.
Retrieve. Page through typed results, export CSV, or use waitForCompletion in the SDK.

If Orbit needs clarification it pauses the project and surfaces a question (status: "awaiting_input"). Answer it in the Orbit UI, then resume polling.

The OpenAPI 3.1 spec is served live and unauthenticated at GET /v1/openapi.json from any Orbit deployment. Import it into any generator, API client, or playground — or browse the interactive reference.
