Common Questions
What services does ForgeIT offer?
ForgeIT offers six services: custom app development, website design and build, SEO optimisation, workflow automation, security testing, and AI implementation. Every engagement starts with a free workflow audit to understand your business before recommending anything.
How much do ForgeIT's services cost?
Pricing depends on what you need. A simple website or SEO engagement is scoped very differently to a custom app or AI implementation. Every project starts with a free workflow audit, then you'll receive a tailored proposal with clear scope, timeline, and fixed pricing before any work begins -- no surprises, no scope creep.
What kinds of businesses does ForgeIT work with?
We work with all kinds of businesses across Australia -- from small businesses wanting a better website or stronger SEO, to trades and professional services firms wanting to automate admin, to larger operations needing custom software, security testing, or AI implementation.
What's the difference between ForgeIT and a traditional IT consultancy?
Traditional IT consultancies often outsource development or deliver recommendations without building anything. ForgeIT is engineering-led -- every solution is designed and built by the founder directly. You work directly with the person building your software, not a project manager or account executive.
How long does a typical project take?
It depends on scope. An SEO audit or automation workflow can be up and running in weeks. A custom web app or full AI implementation might take several months. Every project starts with a free workflow audit where we define scope and give you a realistic timeline before any work begins.
