A browser that actually respects you. Blocks ads, trackers, and popups out of the box. Encrypts your passwords on your machine. No accounts. No cloud sync. No behavior telemetry. And no AI shoved in your face.
What you get
Nothing it shouldn't. No telemetry monsters. No accounts. No monetized surveillance. No AI bloat.
No chatbot in your sidebar, no "AI-powered" anything, nothing feeding your browsing to a model. Every other browser is racing to bolt on AI — Orbit is the one that respects you enough not to.
Ads, trackers, cookie banners, "open in app" popups, autoplay videos. 345,000+ filter rules plus a self-learning engine that catches what filters miss.
Built-in password manager, sealed by your OS keychain (DPAPI on Windows). The key never touches our code or any cloud. Autofill on login forms — we literally cannot read your credentials.
Bookmarks, passwords, history sync between your devices directly over your local WiFi. End-to-end encrypted with a passphrase. No sync servers. No account.
Your lookups ride DNS-over-HTTPS so your ISP can't log the sites you visit, and every page is upgraded to HTTPS. CNAME uncloaking unmasks trackers hiding behind a site's own subdomain.
Canvas, audio, WebGL and font probes get subtly randomized per site — Brave-style farbling — so trackers can't stitch a stable fingerprint to follow you across the web.
One click strips any article to clean, distraction-free text in light, sepia, or dark — then reads it aloud if you'd rather listen than scroll.

Compared as of 2026. We'll update this as other browsers evolve.
The honest part
Every browser has trade-offs. Most don't tell you. We do.
You can't install Chrome extensions. Intentional — extensions can read everything you browse. Orbit includes an ad blocker, password manager, and dark mode already. You shouldn't need them.
Desktop checks for updates every 4 hours and downloads them in the background. You see a notification when a new version is ready — one click to restart and apply.
Once per day, Orbit sends one HTTP request containing only your platform (e.g. win32) and app version. No identifier, no UUID. We count distinct users by hashing the request IP with a secret that rotates every 24 hours and is discarded within 48 hours — we can't correlate you across days even in our own logs. No other network signal leaves the browser.
No separate Work and Personal profiles yet. Incognito mode is available for ephemeral sessions. Multiple profiles are planned.
