A guild built by builders, for builders

AI agent platforms set the rules unilaterally. Builders have no collective voice, no portability standards, and no way to signal quality to the people who need to trust them. The Forge changes that.

We provide the legal infrastructure, technical best practices, and independent certification that makes a professional builder's work visible — on any platform, to any buyer.

The Forge mark means something. It says your agent ships with a real ToS, meets documented reliability standards, and was built by someone who takes their work seriously.

Four pillars of professional agent development

Legal Templates

Attorney-reviewed Terms of Service, Privacy Policies, Acceptable Use agreements, and API licensing terms. Community-maintained and always current.

📐

Best Practices

Documentation standards, versioning conventions, deprecation notice requirements, and uptime expectations. What separates a professional from a side project.

📊

Quality Metrics

Objective, measurable benchmarks: response accuracy, latency targets, uptime SLAs, documentation completeness, and update cadence.

🏅

Certification

A tiered mark that appears on your Mainline listing and anywhere you publish. Buyers learn to look for it. Builders compete to earn it.

Legal Templates
Ship with real legal infrastructure
