Forgify builds high-performance, industry-grade software for the equine and agricultural sectors. We replace broken spreadsheets with robust digital infrastructure.
Our instincts are firmly community-first and open-source-first. When there is a strong, well-built, open alternative, that is where we naturally look. We believe software should be transparent, durable, repairable, and respectful of the people using it. What we do not believe in is accepting inferior, second-rate, broken software just because it has a shiny logo, a subscription model, or a sales team with nice shoes.
At the same time, Forgify is not built on the fantasy that good work should be free forever. Open source matters. Community matters. But so does craft, sustainability, support, and building something worth paying for. We believe it is completely fair to sell a good product — especially when that product solves real problems, is built with care, and does not treat the customer like livestock in a data paddock.
Professional Agistment Software
Govern the horses. Control the paddocks. Command the farm.
Paddock King gathers your entire realm—noble horses, wandering humans, and invading bills—into one unified command centre. Built on enterprise-grade infrastructure by people who have actually run an agistment property. Fast, focused, and stripped of everything that doesn't belong on a working farm. No spreadsheets. No sticky notes. No excuses.
The Iron Underneath
We build around a simple idea: technology should be practical, technically serious, and built to last. In an industry increasingly filled with rushed products and low-effort AI-generated software, we care more about reliability, clarity, and usefulness than hype — a philosophy reflected in both the tools we build and the tools we use ourselves.
Our backend language of choice. Compiled, statically typed, and built for concurrency. Fast by design, not by accident.
Relational data done properly. ACID-compliant, constraint-enforced, and built to handle the integrity demands of live operational software.
Our infrastructure runs on Linux—because reliability and control matter more than convenience. Built to stay up.
The Forge Masters
Forgify was founded by Aaron Coach and Monty Kubasek, both qualified network engineers and long-time Linux users who have spent years building, breaking, fixing, hosting, and refining systems outside the usual corporate software cages. We come from the world where software is not just something you use — it is something you understand, shape, improve, and take responsibility for.
Architect of the Paddock King codebase. Responsible for systems architecture, security, and the "Golden Path" development strategy. Forges the iron that powers the kingdom.
Domain expert in Agistment logistics. Ensures the software matches the gritty reality of running a farm, not just clean theory. Keeper of the crown.
