Investor behavior has changed. They’re younger, faster, and managing $14T on their own. Orbiton turns that shift into your advantage.

[Orbiton @orbitonapp]

What's the actual ROI of an AI investor agent? Here's what it looked like for @copper_gunnison.

Easan Katír, an investor interested in Gunnison Copper, had been trying to reach the team for a site tour. He called, left voicemails, but never connected. Busy company, busy IR desk, the usual.

He went back to Gunnison's website and found the Orbiton AI agent. Explained who he was, why he was reaching out, and that he wanted to see the operation in person.

Melissa Mackie, Director of IR, followed up with him directly. He flew out in April, walked the site, watched the "five-nines copper" production for himself, and invested.

The chatbot didn't sell him anything. It made sure a real conversation got to a real person at the exact moment an investor was leaning in.

Huge thank you to Melissa and Easan for taking the time to film this. Stories like this one are why we keep building.

Most workflows split into two parts: the judgment call and the labor that follows it. AI is collapsing the labor side. What stays, and gets more valuable, is the taste to pick the right idea and the experience to know why. #orbitonweekly #aiworkflows #IR @DBaraghoush @mariahjmac

This is what the Orbiton website builder looks like in practice. No waiting on a developer, no back-and-forth with a designer, no delay between when the deck is ready and when investors can actually see it.

The IR team controls their own site, their own deck, their own investor materials.

Updates happen when the company is ready, not when the developer is available.

This is how @Cu_Giant manages their website now.

@fioregroup has spent decades backing mining and resource companies, and @RobertMcLeod, CEO of @Cambriagoldmines, has seen firsthand what gets investors to pay attention and what loses them.

Hearing that our tools are landing with the people on both sides of the cap table is exactly the feedback we build for.

"Investors love Orbiton's professional, innovative and affordable website tools for mining companies."

✷Welcome back to Orbiton Weekly!✷

@DBaraghoush and @mariahjmac are talking workflows, market corrections and AI Clutter. We can all spot AI slop now. The new problem is AI clutter, the endless drip of new tools, new updates, and new "10x your productivity" promises that fragment a workflow instead of consolidating it.

The conversation moves from why most AI feeds feel exhausting, to what actually separates a good product from a dressed-up wrapper, to the deeper shift @Microsoft 's @satyanadella named in January: moving from models to systems. The hype cycle always sells a dream a few months ahead, and right now that dream is consolidation. Fewer tools that own the full job, instead of more tools that splinter it.

With new AI tools advancing, anyone with a laptop can ship a deck, or a release that looks the part. What hasn't gotten cheaper is distribution, and it's gotten harder now that every investor inbox is drowning in the same volume of output.

Turns out the stuff that still matters is what has always mattered: knowing your investors, reaching the right capital, and a story people trust.

Welcome back to Orbiton Weekly!

The shift @DBaraghoush and @mariahjmac get into this week is from knowledge work to judgment work, and what it means for the IR teams, agencies, and public company executives who have spent years outsourcing pieces of their communication stack.

New Orbiton Weekly 🚀

@DBaraghoush and @mariahjmac on vertical AI, workflow replacement, and why coding was never the moat.

[Orbiton @orbitonapp]

Jensen Huang told @theallinpod that a $500,000 engineer should be consuming at least $250,000 in AI tokens annually, and that Nvidia is targeting $2 billion a year in token spend across its engineering team. @DBaraghoush and @mariahjmac unpack why token volume might be the wrong way to measure productivity, and how the best developers get better results through fewer, more structured iterations.

The conversation moves into how companies are slapping "agentic" and "AI-powered" onto simple database queries and dashboards to justify higher price points, and what happens when customers buy the marketing, try the product, and walk away thinking the entire category is broken. Daniel draws parallels to the crypto wave, NFTs, and the early iPhone era, where real builders coexisted with pure promoters, and only one group survived.

Lululemon didn't become a $50B company by selling yoga pants to department stores. They owned manufacturing, brand, and retail end to end, and that same shift is now happening in software. When you can own the entire workflow from input to output, you stop selling tools and start delivering results.

Full conversation on this week's Orbiton Weekly. 🚀

[Orbiton @orbitonapp]

Vertical AI agents are competing for $13 trillion in US labor spend. Traditional SaaS competed for $300 billion in software budgets.

On this week's Orbiton Weekly, @DBaraghoush and @mariahjmac break down why SaaS is starting to look like a commodity market, why selling outcomes beats selling tools, and what it means for how public companies communicate with investors.

ORBITON WEEKLY - - The SaaSpocalypse & "Boring" AI Verticals

The media is calling it the SaaSpocalypse. ‼️ Somewhere between $300 billion? and $1 trillion? in software stock value evaporated in a matter of weeks, and people are asking whether SaaS is dead.

In this episode of Orbiton Weekly, @DBaraghoush and @mariahjmac break down what happened, why AI-native startups are better positioned than the incumbents, and why the boring, niche vertical plays are where the real opportunity is hiding.

They also get into why selling outcomes beats selling tools, how bureaucracy becomes the great equalizer between big companies and nimble startups, and what this whole shift means for a company like Orbiton that was built on AI from day one.

Sales Mindset & YC Wisdom: It’s Not About Convincing, It’s About Sorting

Welcome back to Orbiton Weekly! In this episode, @DBaraghoush and @mariahjmac discuss the latest company launches (shout-out to @copper_gunnison Gunnison Copper (TSX: GCU | OTC: GCUMF), @amtungsten American Tungsten Corp. (CSE: TUNG | OTCQB: TUNGF | FRA: RK90), and @GraphiteOne Graphite One Inc.!)

Inspired by @daltonc & @mwseibel from @ycombinator , we explore why effective sales isn’t about pushing or manipulating, but about sorting—finding the people who truly need what you’ve built and focusing your energy there. Every conversation is a valuable chance to learn, grow, and improve your product.

Orbiton Weekly: Metals Volatility, Profit-Taking, and AI “Stickiness”

In this episode of Orbiton Weekly, @DBaraghoush and @mariahjmac recap an eventful week across conferences, markets and AI.

Fresh off an event-packed run of conferences and meetings in Vancouver (@MetalsInvtForum, @Vancouver Resource Investment Conference—run by @JayMartinBC —plus Association for Mineral Exploration) we break down the sharp pullback in silver and gold, what a “normal” correction can look like after a big run, and why profit-taking can hit fast.

Then we switch gears to AI: competitors are multiplying, shipping is accelerating, and the big question is what makes an AI product sticky. We talk personalization, vertical AI, and the fact that most people don’t want a stack of tools. They want one system that just works. After Mariah spent the week vibe coding and piecing together some automations, it reinforced the same point: stitching everything together is a job. The winning products may be the ones you can plug in and forget, while they deliver outcomes.

Welcome back to Orbiton Weekly — and welcome to 2026!! 🎉 🎉

In this episode, @DBaraghoush and @mariahjmac reflect on Orbiton’s biggest year yet and break down what drove the company’s growth in 2025.

We talk candidly about starting the year as a two-person team, closing a friends-and-family round led by @Frank_Giustra, CIM®, B.A Econ. and @fioregroup, and working with our first design partner, @SilverVarden.

Dolly Varden Silver went on to become the first company to deploy an AI chatbot in investor relations, and the engagement we saw confirmed that we were solving a real problem. From there, Orbiton scaled from one early partner to more than 19 clients, now representing over $10B in combined market capitalization. Along the way, we added to the team, expanded our product offerings, and shifted from building features to building infrastructure companies could rely on.

We also talk about how advice and early conviction mattered. A pivotal conversation with @RyanWeymark helped sharpen our focus beyond small caps, reinforced the importance of sustainable revenue, and validated that this was a tool companies of all sizes would eventually need. The episode also touches on major industry milestones, including @ShawnKhunkhun and @SilverVarden ‘s announced merger with @OreContango, which underscored how much momentum the broader market experienced alongside us.

One of the clearest lessons from the year is that Orbiton didn’t succeed because it was “an AI company.” It worked because we focused on a problem we had lived ourselves and used the right tools to solve it. AI matured, stabilized, and became reliable enough to support real workflows, not replace people. That shift made trust possible, and trust made adoption possible.

As we head into 2026, the focus remains the same: keep experimenting, keep listening closely to customers, and keep building products that genuinely make work easier. The next phase is about depth, scale, and earning the confidence of even more companies willing to try something new.

Excited for what’s ahead.

[Orbiton @orbitonapp]

Almost every founder feels behind right now. 

The reason is simple: we’re benchmarking ourselves against outliers, not reality.

According to SaaS benchmark data from firms like Lighter Capital and OpenView:

Median B2B SaaS companies grow 20–40% year over year after the earliest stage
Even top-quartile companies rarely sustain 10x growth beyond a short window
The “overnight breakout” stories represent a tiny fraction of venture outcomes

Yet social media and VC content overwhelmingly showcase:

The fastest-growing AI companies
The cleanest ARR screenshots
The most extreme trajectories

That warps perception.

Practical advice for founders:

Instead of asking “Am I growing as fast as them?”, ask:
Is our growth accelerating or decelerating quarter over quarter?
Is customer acquisition getting easier or harder?
Is the time it takes to explain our product shrinking?

Those indicators correlate far more strongly with long-term success than raw speed in isolation.

Growth is a race against friction in your own system.

Vertical AI isn’t a trend.
It’s how investor relations will scale without sacrificing trust or control.
