Orbit Team
The whole job, in the crew's pocket.
Orbit Team is the app the crew actually lives in — clock-in to pay, every shift and site and safety check in one place. Designed to be used one-handed, on a ladder, in the sun. It's one half of the Orbit system; the manager runs the other half, Orbit Base.

A crew member's day,
screen by screen.
From the first tap in the morning to the last safety check. Keep scrolling — this is the app exactly as the crew meets it.
The day starts with a tap.
One glance answers the only questions at 8am — where, when, am I on the clock. Today's shift and the weather sit right under the time, and clocking in is a single honest button.
Everything the job needs, before they go.
A leave-by time with live traffic and directions, a weather window ("good to paint until 3 PM"), a what-to-bring checklist and the site access notes. No group-chat archaeology.
On site — and it knows.
A live geofence confirms they've actually arrived. Heat and safety warnings surface on their own, breaks are one tap, and clocking out is honest by design.
Safety that watches their back.
Real-time heat risk with hydration prompts, a lone-worker check-in, and an Emergency SOS that alerts the manager and site lead with a location — one button, when it counts.
Report a hazard in ten seconds.
Hold the mic, snap a photo — done, gloves back on. Hazards, supplies and issues go straight to the manager and come back replied, not lost in a thread.
An assistant that already knows the site.
"What's my gate code?" "Who do I call on site?" "When's my next shift?" — answered instantly from the crew member's own data, in their language. No calling the office.
The week — and a say in it.
Shifts as a calendar with a live countdown to the next one. Need a change? Request it here; it lands in the manager's queue in Base. It's their schedule too.
The extras that make it theirs.
A before-and-after work journal, snap-a-receipt expenses, tenure achievements, and an offline mode for sites with no signal. Built for the person, not just the roster.
An app the crew actually opens.
Field software usually gets ignored because it's built for the office, not the site. Orbit Team is the opposite — one-handed, glance-able, forgiving of no signal and dirty gloves. Everything a crew member needs in a shift, and nothing they don't.
