Ean Krenzin-Blank builds Orchard.

Most coding sessions start from zero. The agent does not know what the team already tried, what the architecture prefers, what product wants, what engineers will reject, or what a teammate solved yesterday.

That wastes time, burns tokens, and leaves people supervising scattered agents instead of coordinating work. Orchard moves the unit of value from a single prompt to a team system that grows.

It starts with you: your tools, your projects, your sessions, your machine, your rules, your memory. Then it grows with your team: shared proposals, shared knowledge, shared sessions, shared seedpacks, shared supervision, and a mesh of machines that keeps context moving.

The goal is not to remove engineers. Agents do more of the useful work while people keep judgment, control and accountability.

Orchard should feel like infrastructure for a capable team: local-first, durable, and calm under pressure.
