What is Orchestra?
Orchestra combines organization and communication by taking the familiar to-do list and adding collaboration, cross-platform sync, real-time chat, email integration, and voice recognition.
With Orchestra, not only can you organize what you need to get done, you can also:
- create a task by forwarding from email, typing or just speaking into your phone
- set reminder alerts and recurring tasks for yourself and others
- chat in real-time around a task with anyone (even multiple people)
- share lists of tasks with others and quickly see what everyone on a team is doing
Company at a glance
Orchestra launched in the App Store in September 2011 with initial support for iPhone and web clients (i.e. access via orchestra.com). Our team operates out of downtown Palo Alto, led by founders Gentry Underwood (formerly of IDEO) and Scott Cannon. (formerly of Apple)
Orchestra was named Productivity App of the Year by the App Store, nominated for a 2011 Crunchie award, and was named Best To-Do List App for iPhone by LifeHacker.
