Orbit’s public identity should be ambitious without becoming misleading. A consistent communications policy protects users, developers, partners, and the company itself.

22.1 Product status labels

Use clear labels such as:
  • Available: released and usable under documented conditions.
  • Beta: available for testing, with known limitations.
  • Experimental: being evaluated and not recommended for critical use.
  • Planned: an intended future direction without a release guarantee.
  • Concept: an illustration or proposal that has not been built as a working product.
  • Retired: no longer supported or available.
These labels should appear consistently in product pages, documentation, demos, and announcements.

22.2 Claims and evidence

Every significant claim should have an owner and a source of evidence. Statements about benchmark performance, uptime, customers, certifications, revenue, model size, or user counts must be verifiable and current.

22.3 Images and demonstrations

Use genuine screenshots for released features. Clearly label mockups, generated concept art, simulations, and prototype footage. Do not use a concept robot image in a way that implies a manufactured product is available.

22.4 Release notes

Release notes should explain what changed, who is affected, known issues, and any migration steps. Breaking changes should be announced with appropriate notice where possible.

22.5 Community and support

Support channels should have clear expectations and an escalation path. Public bug reports should avoid exposing credentials, private files, or security-sensitive details. Confirmed security issues should have a responsible disclosure route.
