Shared surface area
One model, four ways in.
Choose the interface that fits your runtime. The auth contract, typed records, and tenant model stay the same.
TypeScript server code
SDK
Use HTTP mode against a running API, or DirectTransport in trusted server-side contexts.
import { Orbit } from '@orbit-ai/sdk'
Any language over HTTP
API
REST, JSON, standard bearer auth, version headers, scoped API keys, and structured errors.
Authorization: Bearer orb_...
Shell automation
CLI
Script CRM operations from terminals and CI with orbit contacts, deals, tasks, and search.
orbit search "ada lovelace" --entity contacts
Agent tool hosts
MCP
Expose 23 built-in tools to Claude, Cursor, Copilot, and other MCP-compatible clients.

Architecture
Records agents can trust.
Orbit gives agents a structured CRM memory layer without turning your application into a hosted SaaS dependency.
Boundaries are part of the model.
Every request resolves an organization context. API keys carry scopes, records stay inside their tenant, and DirectTransport is reserved for trusted code.
Deploy beside your app
Run Orbit packages with your own API, adapter, and datastore. Keep auth, rate limiting, and data ownership inside your infrastructure.
Built by
Source-first CRM infrastructure from the builder behind Jobot.
Sharon Sciammas
Built by Sharon Sciammas, the developer behind Jobot, as open-source CRM infrastructure for agent workflows. Alpha, source-first, and designed to run beside your app.
Source-first alpha
Install alpha.
Packages are not on npm yet. Until publish, clone the source and build the workspace locally.
Try from source before npm publish
No hosted backend. Build and deploy beside your app.
git clone https://github.com/sharonds/orbit-ai.git && cd orbit-ai && pnpm install && pnpm -r buildRoadmap
Memory first. Research and activation next.
Memory is live
Typed CRM records, auth-aware surfaces, cursor pagination, SDK transports, and MCP tools are the alpha foundation.
Research direction
Richer enrichment and retrieval paths can layer on top of the same tenant-safe records.
Activation direction
Sequences, tasks, webhooks, and connector events point toward agent-driven follow-up without losing control of the data plane.
FAQ
Questions before you build on Orbit.
Short answers for teams evaluating Orbit as deployable CRM infrastructure, not another hosted CRM account.
What is Orbit AI?
Orbit AI is open-source CRM infrastructure for agent workflows: typed entities, a REST API, TypeScript SDK, CLI, MCP server, and connector-ready packages you deploy with your app.
Is Orbit AI a hosted CRM?
No. Orbit is not a hosted product or vendor account. It is MIT-licensed source you run beside your own application, auth, datastore, and deployment boundary.
Is it on npm yet?
Not yet. The alpha is source-first: clone the repository, install with pnpm, and build the workspace locally until packages are published.
Which surfaces does it support?
Orbit supports a TypeScript SDK, REST API, CLI, and MCP server over the same entity model and auth contract.
How does tenant isolation work?
Requests resolve an organization context from the API key or trusted DirectTransport context. Application-layer checks keep records scoped to that org; SQLite is not recommended for multi-tenant production.
Can I use it with MCP?
Yes. The MCP package exposes 23 built-in tools for MCP hosts. HTTP transport uses bearer auth per request; stdio transport reads ORBIT_API_KEY for the server process.
What is alpha-ready now vs future?
Alpha-ready pieces include typed CRM records, CRUD/list flows, auth-aware API routes, SDK transports, CLI commands, and MCP tools. Future work includes multi-instance stores, richer connector workflows, and completed batch mutations.
