Description
What is Orbicule?
Orbicule is a brand new company dedicated to developing high-quality software for the Mac. The company was founded on January 3, 2006 by Peter Schols. The name 'Orbicule' is a botanical term, referring to very small sporopollenin particles found in the anthers of many flowering plants. Given our background in biology and because orbicules are so widespread - which will hopefully apply to our software as well - we decided to go with that name. There is one big difference however: the real function of orbicules remains unknown, while our software has a clear mission: to surprise and delight its users...
Where are we located?
We are located in Heverlee, a friendly town with a large forest, close to Leuven, one of the oldest historic and academic cities of Belgium. Leuven is located in the center of Belgium and Belgium is located in the heart of Europe. Therefore, we are very close to many European cities such as Brussels (20 minutes by train), Paris (1 hour 15 minutes by train), London (2 hours by train) and Amsterdam (2 hours by train). From Leuven you can reach the German, French and Dutch border within the hour.
Why are we writing software?
You will agree that Mac OS X is a great platform to work with. The user interface is gorgeous, the underlying technology is rock solid and the attention to detail is unmatched in the entire industry. However, a great OS needs great software in order to be truly... great. Many companies write excellent, delicious software for Mac OS X and Apple itself does more than its part in releasing good software as well. That being said, we think there are still some apps missing, or some solutions that could work better, and that's why we are in business. We want our software to be the best of its kind for Mac OS X and we are working hard to accomplish that.
