Independent. Bootstrapped. Built around your stories.

About Orlo

Orlo is an independent, bootstrapped startup founded in 2026 by Dillan Cohen.

We’re building a voice-first journal that turns spoken memories into written stories—and connects the people, places and experiences within them.

Your life doesn’t happen in separate entries.

The same people return. Places take on meaning. A story you tell today changes how you understand one from years ago. Orlo helps you see those connections without having to organize everything yourself.

Start with a memory, a guided prompt or whatever’s on your mind. Orlo shapes what you say into an editable entry while preserving your meaning and voice. Over time, those entries become a connected personal archive: your Lore.

Founded and built by Dillan Cohen

Orlo is developed and operated by Dillan Cohen. The app is currently available in an external iPhone beta through Apple TestFlight.
