08FAQ
Fairquestions.
What does it cost?
One Orbiter is £49.99 a month, two to four are £99 and five to nine are £149. Every plan starts with 14 days free. There is no setup fee if you set it up yourself, or £199 if you would like us to set it up with you. Custom builds are a fixed price, quoted after a £295 blueprint that's credited to the build.
Is there a contract?
No minimum term. You pay month to month and can cancel any time. It stops at the end of the month you've paid for.
Can I see it before I sign up?
Yes. The live demo shows a sample business running in The Observatory, and the setup call walks through what yours would look like.
Do I need new software?
No. The Orbiters work around the phone, email and diary you already use. The Observatory opens in your browser, on your phone or laptop.
What if the AI gets it wrong?
You approve the wording of every automatic message before it goes live. Anything AI writes fresh waits for your OK until you trust it, and you'll see it in the Orbit log either way.
Do you work with my kind of business?
Most likely. Nearly every business has the same repeat jobs: enquiries, quotes, bookings, invoices. The Orbiters started with trades, and custom builds are open to anyone.
Is my customers' information safe?
We're registered with the Information Commissioner's Office and only use data to run what we set up for you.
