OnePageCRM turns your CRM into a to-do list: every contact has a next action, and you work the list, priced per seat. Orbit shares that action-first instinct, then has an AI assistant, Hiro, draft many of those actions for you to approve. OnePageCRM keeps you disciplined about the next step. Orbit drafts the next step and waits for your yes.
OnePageCRM has one of the clearest philosophies in the category: a CRM should tell you what to do next. Every contact gets a Next Action, and the home screen is a prioritized action stream, so you always know who to call or email today. It is simple, fast, and great for salespeople who believe momentum beats features.
For solo sellers and small teams that value follow-through over reporting, it is excellent. The action stream creates a habit, the mobile app is strong for selling on the move, and there is just enough pipeline and contact management to stay organized without distraction.

OnePageCRM and Orbit agree that a CRM should be about doing, not admiring dashboards. The difference is who drafts the doing. OnePageCRM hands you a clean list of next actions and trusts your discipline to work it. Orbit drafts many of those actions and asks only for your approval. The thread gone quiet? Ask Hiro to draft the bump. The proposal to send? Hiro writes it. The overdue invoice? Hiro drafts the reminder. You approve, edit, or dismiss.
You keep the action-first habit, you just stop typing every draft. The honest pitch: if you love the discipline of working the list yourself, OnePageCRM is purpose-built for that. If the list keeps growing faster than you can clear it, Orbit's assistant drafts it down for you. This is the heart of how to automate follow-up without losing the personal touch, because you approve every draft.
Nothing sends on its own, and Orbit does not make phone calls. The free plan covers 250 contacts, one pipeline, unlimited tasks, a calendar, notes, a built-in email inbox (100 sends a month), and basic Tables, plus 10 invoices and 10 proposals. Hiro runs on free monthly AI credits, included on every plan, no API key to paste and nothing to configure.
OnePageCRM tells you the next action. Orbit drafts it, then waits for your yes.

OnePageCRM is the better pick if you prefer the discipline of working every next action by hand. Orbit is the pick if you want the actions drafted for you.
