I've spent twenty years building things on the internet. The last few, I've been building an AI setup that actually runs my own life — a whole world it constantly keeps organized for me. And I finally made a version anyone can own.
It's the best thing I've ever made. I'd love to walk you through it.
First of all
Tell it the shape of your problem — out loud, in your own words — and it builds the little machine that handles it: a tracker, a planner, a workflow, a hub for the thing you run. Anything you can think of.
Every machine it builds is yours forever: it lives in a folder on your own computer, and you can rewire it by voice any time — "make it work like this instead" is a sentence, not a project.
See for yourself
Everything here is real and clickable. Start anywhere.
Two versions of a contract went in; 57 material changes came out, each quoted word-for-word and flagged for my side — graded against a hundred-change answer key, and it caught the trap designed to fool professional comparison software. Two hours, start to finish. I own the machine forever.

A full clickable copy of my own setup: the garden log, the to-do list, the game shelf, all real. Yours will look like this, with your stuff in it.
Open the front door →
A real evening, receipts and all: everything I said, the machine that existed two hours and $2.02 later, and every page it built. Clickable, start to finish.
Read the whole session →The full illustrated tour: the things you could never do before, the quiet superpowers, and what it refuses to do on purpose.
See every feature →What's on the shelves today: tools that ship installed, parts you pull by asking, and machines built by talking. The store restocks.
Browse the shelves →One agent, one conversation
Forge builds beautiful dashboards . . . that you'll never have to open. Because you never have to look at a screen to get anything done. One agent runs your whole Forge, and you just talk to it — right here on the home page — about anything at all.
Ask it something no dashboard could answer: "Out of everyone I've met in the last two months here in Milwaukee, which ones could most likely introduce me to the CTO of Harley-Davidson — and why?" It reads across every machine in your life and just tells you. You never go digging through a CRM screen to find it.
Ask it to build something new, or change something you already have — "add a column for follow-up dates" — and it does. Questions, new machines, edits on the fly: it's all one conversation, in one place.
One agent. One conversation. Your whole Forge.
Subscription and billing
All the AI metering and payment stuff in nine little pictures: the tank, the gauge, the bigger tank, and why there's never a surprise bill.
How the money works →Using Forge for work?
A growing set of the machines on the shelves comes in two versions: the personal one, and a Professional version — the commercial-grade build of the same machine. The money dashboard that reads like it belongs to a CFO instead of a household. The organizer that runs a client roster instead of a family calendar. Same machine underneath; built for work.
That shelf is called Heavy Machinery, and it comes with the Professional membership.
The professional tools you're renting right now — the bookkeeping app, the scheduler, the CRM, the project tracker — are each more powerful than my machines. But a small business pays $300–500 a month for that stack, mostly for basic functions you barely go beyond. The basics are already here in Forge. Owned, on your own computer, customizable by talking . . . and when the machine you need doesn't exist, you just build it.
This is the lane built for a single person running a small business or a side hustle.
The professional deal
Look before you buy anything: every professional tool has a full clickable preview in the catalog. And it's a membership, not a cage — drop back to the regular seat any time. Your Professional machines park, every file and page they made stays yours forever, and it all wakes back up if you return.
Teams, companies & nonprofits
One flat door for the whole company — three people or three thousand, same price, no per-head math on the way in. Everyone's tank pools, so one person's heavy month borrows from another's light one. And I come set it up with you: half a day of me, machines built around your actual work before I leave.
The business deal
Grab a short meeting with me and we'll make sure it's the right fit for you.
Churches, food pantries, scout troops, little leagues: giving things away to good people is roughly half of my whole story, and the volunteer running the spreadsheet at 11pm is exactly who I built this for. So it's the same deal as the businesses get — same machine, same seats — but the door is 90% off:
The nonprofit deal
Say hi and we'll get your org set up.
Is it worth it?
This is the same machine a company pays to bring in the door — and their people pay the same a month you do.
So here's the only test that matters, and it scales with what you're using it for. If you're running your own life, Forge should be saving you $100 of something every month — time, money, or just not lying awake trying to hold it all in your head.
If you're running a small business or a side hustle, the bar is higher because the stakes are: it should be putting an extra $500 a month in your pocket — earned, saved, or a combination of the two. Either way, if it isn't clearing your number, cancel it. Everything you built stays yours.
I want everyone who uses this to absolutely love it. And if you don't, we part as friends. :)
Are you ready?
I built this to be safe. Forge lives in its own little world and has to ask you first, with a pop-up card that states exactly what it wants to do, before it deletes anything, touches a file outside its world, or goes out to the web. You approve those by hand, so you always see exactly what it's reaching for.
And I couldn't read your stuff if I wanted to — nothing you do in Forge passes through me.
But it's a framework, not a foolproof box. If you decide to be dumb about it — pasting random junk off the web and rubber-stamping every card without reading it — you can still get yourself in trouble. That half-of-one-percent is on you. So, a quick check:
None of these stop you from buying; they just make you think. If you wanted to check a box but couldn't, go take care of that first. If you're good: have fun. At purchase you'll get the real terms, including a line that says you read this checklist.
P.S. — Now that I've put the fear of god into you, I can say that I've been running this system full-time, non-stop for months, and I've never once come close to it stepping outside its bounds into something dangerous.
Get Forge
The machine is the same either way. The only choice is how hard you'll run it.
You'll wonder how it costs this little.
Fair warning: these are founding prices — they'll rise as Forge grows. Founders keep their price for as long as they stay subscribed.
The particulars
Already bought? Download Forge for Windows — it asks for your activation code the first time it opens.
When you first run it: Windows may show a blue “Windows protected your PC” box — that's Windows being cautious with a publisher it hasn't seen many times yet, not a problem with your download. Click More info, then Run anyway. The publisher line should say CHANGE THE WORLD, LLC — that's me.
On a Mac? Forge is Windows today, Mac next. Get on the Mac waitlist and you'll hear from me the day it's ready.
One-time plus local sales tax, then /mo or /mo plus tax with the AI included. Cancel and everything you built stays yours — plain files on your own computer, readable forever. The machine just parks until you re-subscribe; come back any month and you're instantly current. The full story: how the money works.
