If something goes wrong
Orbit showsNot a hex code
Enter the colour as a hex code with its #, such as #1B6556, or pick it from the swatch beside the field.
The fields are greyed out and there’s no Save brand kit button.
Only an Agency Owner or Admin can edit the brand kit. Managers and Specialists can view it.
Your brand font isn’t in the list.
Decks can only use the fonts Orbit has installed. Pick the closest, choose Custom… and type your real font for reference.
Orbit showsThe brand kit could not be saved
Press Save brand kit again. If it keeps failing, email support@orbit.group.
How it works
Explainer: What’s in the brand kit, and what uses it
The brand kit holds your logos, colours, fonts, conventions and writing guidelines. Orbit’s AI uses it when it builds decks and reports. It doesn’t change the colours of Orbit or your clients’ portal.
Decks can only be set in the fonts Orbit has installed: Inter, Roboto, Carlito, Liberation Sans, DejaVu Sans, Montserrat, Open Sans, Lato, Noto Sans, Caladea, Liberation Serif, DejaVu Serif, Noto Serif, Liberation Mono and DejaVu Sans Mono. Pick the closest, and record your real font under Custom…; that’s for reference only.
| Section | What you set |
|---|---|
| Logos | Reverse (on dark), Mark and Favicon. Your main logo is the Agency Logo above the kit. |
| Colours | Primary, Secondary, Accent, Ink and Surface as hex codes, plus Chart series colours in order. |
| Typography | A Heading, Body and Mono face, from the fonts decks can use. |
| Conventions | Date format, Currency, Week starts and Decimals. |
| Guidelines | Free text: tone, banned words, how to name things. |
| Deck & report templates | Branded .pptx, .docx or .xlsx files for Orbit to fill. |
- Logos save as soon as you upload them. Everything else saves only when you press Save brand kit.
- Logo slots take the same files as the agency logo: PNG, JPG, WebP or SVG up to 2 MB.
- A colour must be a hex code with its #, such as #1B6556. Anything else shows “Not a hex code”.
- Leave Chart series empty and charts use Orbit’s default colours.
- The Live preview is an approximation. The real deck is rendered by Orbit when it’s built.
Explainer: What Pull brand does
Pull brand reads a public website and proposes colours, a chart palette, fonts, logos and guidelines for your brand kit. Nothing is saved until you accept it, field by field.
It’s on the Branding tab only where Orbit has switched on Mission Control and AI Reports for your agency. Without it, fill the kit in by hand.
- It reads public websites only, on the standard web ports (80 and 443). Internal addresses and addresses with a username or password in them are refused.
- The card shows “Reading {your site}…” while it works. Cancel stops it.
- When it finishes, Proposed from your site opens. Only the fields you tick are saved.
- A field you leave unticked when you accept isn’t offered again unless the site changes.
- Pulling also records the address as your agency’s website.
- If a pull is already running for your kit, Orbit shows that one instead of starting another.
