Why Forge

An offshore team that never feels offshore.

We pair the value of building in China with the communication, quality and reliability you'd expect from a studio next door.

We work your hours

Overlapping hours with the US, EU and APAC. Calls when it suits you — not 3 a.m. compromises.

Fluent, plain English

A dedicated English-speaking PM. Clear updates, no jargon, no lost-in-translation surprises.

Senior, in-house team

Designers and engineers with 8+ years on average. No outsourcing your project to a third party.

Transparent & accountable

Fixed scope or sprint-based — your choice. Clear milestones, shared boards, you own all the code.

A modern, proven stack

React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node and the rest of today's best tools — built to last, easy to hand over.

Great value, no corners

Competitive rates that fund more iterations — not cheaper work. Quality is the whole point.

How we work

A clear path from idea to launch.

Five focused phases. You always know what's happening, what's next, and what it costs.

01

Discovery

We dig into your goals, users and constraints, then map scope, timeline and a fixed quote — before a line of code.

In their words

Clients who'd hire us again.

They felt like our in-house team — just faster. The timezone overlap and the weekly demos made the whole thing painless.

Sarah MöllerVP Product, Nordhaus (Berlin)

Best agency decision we've made. Senior people, honest timelines, and the code was clean enough that our team picked it up instantly.

David ReyesFounder, Lumio (Austin, US)

We were nervous about working across borders. Three projects later, Forge is simply our product team.
