Internal tools for agencies, built and run for you.
Every agency ends up needing the same internal tools - a client portal, a status page, a time tracker, a team homebase. Custom development runs $8,000-$50,000 and takes weeks; no-code hands you a second job; off-the-shelf SaaS fits no one. Forge is the third option: you answer a few questions, and we build the tool, host it, and keep it running.

Three ways agencies get tools - and why each one hurts
Today it's one of three, and each has a catch. Forge removes the trade-off: you describe what you need in plain language, and we handle everything technical and operational.
Hire a dev shop
You get exactly what you want - eventually, and expensively. Quotes start at five figures, timelines run months, and every change is another invoice.
Use a no-code platform
Cheaper, but the work shifts to you: wiring up data, designing screens, connecting hosting, managing logins, and maintaining it forever. You wanted a tool, not a side project.
Stitch together SaaS
Five tools, five logins, five bills - and none of them quite fit how your agency actually works.
The internal tools we build for agencies
Pick a preset, answer a few specifics, and it's live - branded to your agency, on its own secure link.
Client portals
A logged-in space where each client sees deliverables, files, invoices and messages.

A shareable page showing project progress and next steps, so clients stop chasing you for updates.
Internal team portals
One homebase for who's working on what, plus SOPs and announcements.
Time tracking
Log billable hours by client and project, with weekly totals and export.
Client onboarding flows
Turn a signed contract into a working relationship without the Slack scramble.

One predictable price covers the AI and the hosting - no per-message credits ticking away.
Proof it's working

Made for agencies
Presets already know what an agency needs - it isn't built for anyone with an idea.

Podcast agencies, design studios, marketing shops, dev agencies, recruiting firms - if you manage a roster of clients and a team, Forge fits. Run a podcast agency? We have a stack built for you (see the use cases in the footer).
Frequently asked questions
What are internal tools for agencies?
Internal tools are custom apps built around your agency's exact workflows - client portals, status pages, time trackers, onboarding flows - that replace spreadsheets, email threads and generic SaaS. Forge builds and runs them for you.
Do I need to be technical to use Forge?
No. If you can answer a few questions about your agency, you can get a tool live. There's no building surface to learn and nothing to host.
How is this different from no-code tools like Softr or Noloco?
No-code platforms give you a canvas and leave the building and maintenance to you. Forge is a managed service - we do the building, hosting and upkeep, and the tools improve over time on their own.
How much does it cost?
A flat monthly subscription that covers both the AI and the hosting - far below custom development, and predictable, with no credits to count.
Where do my tools live, and is my data safe?
On their own secure link or your custom domain. Each tool's data is isolated, and we manage hosting and security for you.
Can I change a tool later?
Yes - request a change and we rebuild and republish it.
