An always-visible home for the one thing that matters

Your projects
orbit you.

You're running half a dozen things at once and quietly losing the one that matters most. Orrery turns every project into a planet on your desktop — and keeps your real goal the brightest thing on the screen.

01 / Why this exists

By Wednesday, the urgent
has eaten the important.

The list

You keep a to-do app. You stopped opening it weeks ago. Out of sight, out of mind — that's exactly the problem.

The day

You open the laptop to do the one big thing and close it having done eleven small ones. The goal didn't move. It just went quiet.

The drift

Half a dozen things, all half-alive. None of them loud enough to pull you back. So you drift to whatever's blinking.

You don't need another list you'll abandon. You need to see the thing that matters — every time you glance at your screen.

Before A goal you have to remember.
After A goal you can't help but see.

One minute to set up. On for as long as you keep working.

02 / How it works
STEP 01

Name it.

Type what you're working on. Each name becomes a planet. No folders, no integrations, no accounts — just the name.

NEW PROJECT finish the book_
STEP 02

Size it.

Give each project a weight. Bigger weight, bigger planet, wider orbit. Your one real goal sits at the centre as the sun — the largest thing, always.

WEIGHT small ──●── big
STEP 03

The biggest one
wears the rings.

Rings attach themselves to your largest planet — automatically. Nothing to mark, no button to press. Grow a project past the rest and the rings follow it.

It stays out of your way until you want it.

Clicks pass right through

Work normally — click windows, drag files, select anything behind it. The overlay isn't in your way until you hold a key to grab a planet.

Fades when you're busy

It dims to a faint glow when your cursor leaves and brightens the moment you come back — set the idle level anywhere you like. Present, never nagging.

Always there, barely costs anything

On top, transparent, borderless — it follows you to whatever screen you're on and sips power when idle. You'll forget it's running.

04 · The obvious objection

“Another tool I'll pay for forever?”
No. $20, once.

You already pay every month for the AI, the editor, the cloud drive, the notes app, and the thing that watches the other things. The last thing your goal needs is another subscription standing between you and it.

So Orrery is twenty dollars, one time. You buy it, you download it, it lives on your machine — not on a server that can switch off. Every update is free. If the price ever goes up, your copy keeps working anyway.

It's a small, finished tool that does one thing. It should cost like one, then get out of the way.

Not just for one kind of person. For anyone juggling too much.

— In their words

I stopped losing my novel under freelance work. It's just there, glowing, every morning.

My whole company in one glance. The big bet is the sun and I literally cannot ignore it.

Before you buy. The honest answers.

— FAQ
Will it slow down my computer? +
No. It caps its frame rate and sips power when idle — you'll forget it's running. It's a single small overlay, not a background service phoning home.
What if I have 30 projects, not six? +
It still works — but it works best when you're honest about the few that actually matter. Making you choose is sort of the point.
Do I need to be technical? +
No. If you can type a name, you can use it. No accounts, no setup files, no folders to connect — you name your projects and they appear.
Is it really on Windows and Linux? +
Mac first. Windows and Linux are on the way — and one license covers all three, forever. Buy now and they're free the moment they land.
What if I don't like it? +
Email me within 14 days and I'll refund every cent. No form, no questions, no hard feelings.
