Everyone we know has research in them. The comparison you ran before choosing a stack. The survey you did for a college project. The three weeks you spent understanding why your city floods. And almost all of it ends up in the same place: a document nobody opens.
The tools are the problem. Word processors are built for printing. Note apps are built for hoarding. Social feeds are built for hot takes, not findings. Nothing is built for the person who did the work and wants it read.
What OrbitSub does differently
Formats, not blank pages. Six academic formats, from an Empirical Study to a Literature Review, each with its own sections and a short prompt under every heading. You never stare at an empty document, and what you publish reads like a journal paper, not a web page.
Orbit AI, a co-writer that never overrides you. Ask it anything; it works from your draft. But every edit it proposes arrives as a before-and-after that you apply or discard. Your name is on the work, so your judgement stays in it. We think this is the only honest way to put AI inside writing.
Research in the open. Work live with your team while readers watch. Fold in the best suggestions from your Orbit — credit lands automatically. Every step sits on a public timeline, so how the work was made is part of the work.
Who it’s for
Students who did more than the assignment asked. Indie researchers without an institution behind them. Professionals who learned something the hard way and want it to count. If that’s you, the first 500 people to claim a founding number keep a permanent Founding badge.
Your research deserves better than a doc nobody opens. Come write it where it will be read.
