X header and card maker
Orbit Cards
The people you talk with on X, turned into your header.
$9 card pack or $4 a month·In your browser·Read-only X access
What Orbit Cards does
Connect your X account and Orbit Cards reads it once: your profile, your last 30 days of posts, replies and mentions, a pick of your followers and a sample of the year before. It ranks the people you replied to, quoted, mentioned and reposted, and the people who did that to you, by how much and how recently.
Every card is drawn from that one read, with no more calls to X. Pick a design, a look and a size, shuffle the people, hide names if you like, then download the PNG and post it yourself. A header keeps the corner under your profile photo clear and puts your closest people in the band phones never crop.
The parts worth knowing about
Not the whole list - the app has more screens than a page like this can usefully hold. These are the decisions that make Orbit Cards different from the last one you tried.
-
Headers made from your people
1500x500 X headers in 25 designs, from a Mosaic of profile photos to Polaroids pinned to a board, each in three looks. The people you talk with most get the biggest spots.
-
Recaps, rings and shout-outs
A monthly recap of your X, a badge ring around your own profile photo, a card for your #1 person this month, milestones, trophies and a thank-you card for new followers.
-
Your X, a year apart
The Time Machine puts your X today next to a year ago: the post from one year ago today, a 12-month rewind and, once the reads cover a year, your followers then and now.
-
Read-only, and it never posts
It asks X for read access only. It never posts, follows, likes or changes your profile. Post on X copies the card and opens X's own post box, and you decide whether to send it.

Questions about Orbit Cards

No. It only asks for read access. It never posts, follows, likes or changes your profile. Post on X copies your card and opens X's own post box, and you decide whether to send it.
What does it cost?
A card pack is $9 once for one read of your X and 30 days of cards. Monthly is $4 a month, with a fresh read on the 1st of every month, and you can cancel any time. Every plan is paid.
Which people end up on my cards?
The people you replied to, quoted, mentioned or reposted, and the people who did that to you, ranked by how much and how recently. A header can also mix in a pick of your followers, and you can hide names on any card.
What happens to my X sign-in?
On a card pack it is deleted right after the read. On Monthly it is kept for the read on the 1st and deleted when Monthly ends.
