Forge

We design, build, ship and operate our own products. We also build and grow products with partners. Since 2021.

Ethos

It is not the gods who burn the pots

An old proverb, and the spine of how we work. Mastery is human work, not a gift from the gods. We do the hard parts ourselves and let the running product make the argument.

Who

Who we are

FotG is an independent software house and product forge. We have shipped our own products since 2021 and run them in production, not as demos. The ideas are ours, and so is the risk.

Our own work spans three product domains: secure networking, crypto and fiat-crypto finance, and everyday utilities. One team owns each product end to end, from the first commit to the servers it runs on.

We also partner with other teams. We build native mobile apps, take them to the stores, and run ASO to grow them. When it fits, we take shared upside instead of billing by the hour.

Operating since: 2021
Own domains: Networking, finance, utilities
With partners: Apps, ASO, growth

Method

How we work

Four rules we hold to on every product.

01

Made by hand

We write the code ourselves and know every layer of it.

02

Measured twice

We decide slowly, then build once and build it right.

03

No marketing noise

We state the fact, name the protocol, give the real number, and stop.

04

Ship and operate

We do not hand off. We run our products in production and keep them running.

Record 2021

Track record

Our deepest engineering track is secure networking. We build the client, run the servers, and maintain everything in between. The same discipline carries into every product we make and every partner we build for.

Full-cycle secure VPN systems, from the client app to the servers behind it.

Native clients shipped for iPhone, iPad, Mac, PC, Android and smart TV.

Server infrastructure set up and maintained in-house.

Built for individuals, for the App Store and Google Play, and for companies.
