Nothing slips.
Everything moves.
The construction workflow platform built for commercial subcontractors. Track every submittal, lien deadline, RFI, and permit — with AI that alerts you before anything falls through the cracks.
The problem
Commercial contractors are losing money to paperwork chaos.
Every missed submittal, forgotten lien deadline, and unanswered RFI costs real money. And right now, nothing is tracking any of it.
Submittals stall for weeks
Engineers take 5–15 days to respond. Nobody's watching the clock. Materials can't be purchased. Crew sits idle waiting on approvals that nobody followed up on.
Lien deadlines get missed
Lien laws vary by state, but the clock starts the day you get a Notice to Proceed. Miss the filing deadline and you permanently lose your right to get paid. It happens more than anyone admits.
RFIs go unanswered
One unanswered question can stop work cold. Without a system, RFIs get buried in email threads and forgotten until a foreman is standing idle on the job site.
One missed re-inspection cost us $4,200 in idle crew time and almost cost us the relationship with our GC.

The solution
One platform. Every approval workflow. Nothing missed.
Forge tracks what your team is waiting on — not just what they've done. That's where the money is.
Submittals
Know exactly where every approval stands.
Track every cut sheet, shop drawing, and product submittal sent to engineers and architects. See what's approved, what's waiting, and what's overdue — before your crew starts asking why materials haven't arrived.
- 20–50 submittals per job, all in one place
- Overdue alerts before deadlines pass
- Full version history and approval timeline
Lien tracking
Never miss a lien deadline again.
Lien laws vary by state, but you still have deadlines to protect your right to get paid. Forge calculates yours from your Notice to Proceed date and alerts you at 30, 14, 7, and 1 day out. No more surprises.
- Auto-calculated from NTP date
- Alerts at 30, 14, 7, and 1 day before deadline
- Preliminary notice, lien filing, and waiver tracking
AI insights
Your smartest team member works 24/7.
Forge's AI scans your entire workflow every 6 hours and surfaces specific, actionable alerts — not generic reminders. It knows which submittal is overdue, which RFI is blocking rough-in, and which lien deadline is 7 days away.
- Specific alerts with names, dates, and recommended actions
- Runs automatically every 6 hours
- Mark handled or dismiss — stays out of your way
Mobile first
Your team lives in their trucks. Forge lives there too.
Log inspection results, check lien deadlines, and follow up on submittals from anywhere. No laptop required.
- Log inspections from the job site
- Check lien deadlines on the road
- Follow up on submittals from your truck
