About Orbit

Orbit was my first dog. I wanted to honor him for all the times he was on the couch watching whatever game I had on with me. We miss you, Orbit.

Why the name

There is no strategic reason. I named it after my dog. If that seems like a soft basis for a business, it is, and I would rather say so than invent something cleverer.

The card

The card goes out under Orbit's name. Some of it is free, some of it is behind a subscription, and every play is written the same way: the reasoning down before the game, kept up afterward whether it hit or not.

The picks come from a team, not from a dog. But Orbit's name is on them, and that's the part that keeps us honest.

What this is

The other half is yours, and it has nothing to do with the card. Log a bet, write down why you took it, and mark it when it settles. Bet Bot reads that history back to you, including the parts you'd skip: the bet you took because it was your team, the one you placed after a loss, the time you named the better play and took the other one anyway. It never tells you what to bet. It never places one either, and it has no connection to any sportsbook. It cannot see anyone's bets but yours. Logging is free and always will be.

Good dog.
