Our mission is to empower businesses to thrive in a technology-driven world by providing human-centered solutions that bridge the gap between people and technology.

The ForgeWorx Difference

We take an honest, human approach to technology. While we know that AI and automation are powerful tools for any business, we also know that the foundation matters. We don’t rush into tech solutions without understanding your unique needs first. By working with you to optimize your internal processes and build solid data, we ensure that your business is truly ready to leverage AI when the time is right, not just sell you a pipe dream that will never work.

The Birth of ForgeWorx

I founded ForgeWorx out of disappointment with how AI is being positioned as the silver bullet or your business will fail. Hyped up, oversold, and often misunderstood. Too many businesses are being misled, investing huge capital into AI solutions that promise the world but fail to deliver meaningful outcomes because the foundations aren’t there. I’ve seen firsthand how organizations are mis-sold a silver bullet and talked into AI adoption programs without a clear “why”, leading to wasted time and money, internal confusion, and solutions that don’t integrate with business needs.

AI is our future, it’s fantastic! And when used in the right way it will drive massive value to any business or person using it.

After 25 years of working in product strategy, digital transformation, and enterprise software solutions, I knew there had to be a better way, one that cuts through the jargon, false promises, and vendor-driven hype. ForgeWorx was created to help businesses truly understand AI, and apply it in controlled, practical, and ethical ways, to drive real, measurable value.

I believe AI should be accessible, transparent, and most importantly ethical. My mission is to demystify AI, help businesses make informed decisions, and ensure that AI investment delivers long-term success.

ForgeWorx is about building solutions that work with people, to speed up value realization for businesses. Solutions that enable productivity and growth, but never totally replace humans.
