About Orbit
Orbit is a Mac client for people who juggle several Google accounts. Each account runs in its own sealed session, so signing out or a security re-check in one account does not affect the others. It shows the real Gmail interface, with your labels, filters and layout, plus Calendar, Drive, Meet, Docs, Sheets, Slides and Gemini.
You switch accounts with Command-1 to 9, and each one stays loaded. The download is about 4 MB, built with Apple's own tools rather than a bundled browser. It is sold as a one-time purchase after a 14-day trial.
