How it works

Set up once. Faster forever.

Step 01

Install Orlo

Drag one notarized app to Applications. No account, no setup wizard.

Step 02

Add the extension

Install the Chrome or Firefox add-on so your browser hands downloads to Orlo.

Step 03

Download at full speed

Every download runs at full multi-connection speed. Nothing else to do.

Chrome / Firefox Send to Orlo 32 parallel streams Done, fast
Multi-connection

Every file, split into up to 32 streams.

Orlo opens many connections at once and pulls each file down in parallel segments, then stitches them back together. The result is often several times faster than your browser alone.

Queues & scheduling

A queue for every kind of download.

Start from a preset — Normal, Overnight, or Metered — then fine-tune it. Concurrency, daily windows, bandwidth caps, and what happens when it finishes. All per queue.

Always one click away.

Orlo lives in your menu bar, so you can pause everything or open the app without breaking focus. It keeps downloading with the main window closed.

Every download, caught at the source.

Torrents, too.

A real BitTorrent client lives inside Orlo — so magnets and .torrent files download in the same window as everything else.
