ROI assembled automatically
One click turns logged hours, cost, ad spend, traffic and revenue into a project and per-client profitability report, with a data-health score that tells you how much to trust the number.
Forge runs your client projects end to end, then turns the work into a one-click ROI report that no standalone project tool can produce. You log the work, Forge does the math.
Pick a trigger, add conditions, run actions. The busywork between every step runs itself, so your data stays clean and your report stays honest.
No spreadsheets, no month-end reconciliation. Forge combines effort, cost, ad spend, traffic and revenue into a project and per-client profitability report, and grades its own trustworthiness so you always know how solid the number is.
The work gets delivered. Whether it made money is anyone's guess.
It shipped, the client is happy, but nobody can say if it was profitable.
Time goes unlogged, so the cost is a guess and the margin is fiction.
Extra work slips in unbilled and eats the margin you planned for.
People, spend, traffic and revenue never sit in one place, so the real number is impossible.
Forge closes every one of these gaps, automatically. Here is how.
From the first requirement to the final invoice, Forge runs the steps that protect your margin.
One click turns logged hours, cost, ad spend, traffic and revenue into a project and per-client profitability report, with a data-health score that tells you how much to trust the number.
The exact rate is snapshotted the moment time is approved, so your numbers are reproducible and never drift.
A release cannot ship while a blocker is open, and a fix cannot be verified unless its test actually passed.
Forge watches every project against its budget and margin floor, and raises an alert the moment you go over budget, near the threshold, or into negative margin, so nothing quietly sinks.
Edit an approved requirement and it re-opens for client sign-off. Approved change requests flow straight into revenue.
Forge flags tasks marked done with no time logged and suggests the links you forgot, so the report runs on clean data.
Spin up a full project of milestones, tasks and deliverables from a template in seconds.
Forge assembles the changelog from everything shipped in the release, so handover docs are never a scramble.
A clean delivery core, wired to the numbers that matter.
Plan, build, assure, ship, close and prove. All in Forge, all linked.
Run every client engagement and see which ones actually pay.
Keep scope, quality and margin under control without the spreadsheet.
A clean board, real traceability and gates that hold the line.
Look enterprise-grade and prove your value, client by client.
Cost and margin are visible to managers and owners only, enforced server-side per field.
Read-only, money-free client views and approvals, with internal detail stripped out.
Every change is captured, and credentials are stored as vault references, never plaintext.
Single sign-on across the xenzee suite, with a REST API and webhooks for everything else.
Forge is an automation-first project delivery and profitability platform by xenzee. It runs client projects end to end, from requirements to handoff, and links each project to the rest of the xenzee suite so it can produce a one-click ROI report, the reason Forge exists.
It is Forge's hero feature. With one click, Forge combines the hours you logged, your cost rates, ad spend, traffic and revenue into a project and per-client profitability view, with margin, ROI and a data-health score so you know exactly how trustworthy the number is.
Forge includes a no-code automation engine. You pick a trigger (like a deal being won, time being approved, or a milestone being accepted), add conditions, and choose actions. For example, an accepted milestone can raise the client approval and the invoice on its own, and a frozen cost rate keeps the ROI report honest.
Forge gives you a clean, modern delivery core (boards, tasks, milestones, sprints) and goes far beyond it with requirements, QA, releases, handoff and the profitability report. The point is not to out-feature a generic tool, it is to connect the work to the outcome and prove the value.
Both sides of client work. Agencies, studios and freelancers run their client delivery in Forge. And business owners or startups use Forge to OWN their project: you create the workspace, invite your agency in as a free external Project Admin, and every task, decision and discussion stays in your hands, even if you switch agencies later.
Three flat monthly plans, and every plan is the full product: Pro at $49/month (up to 5 people, 25 active projects), Business at $149/month (up to 25 people, unlimited projects) and Agency at $349/month (unlimited everything). Your first 30 days of any plan cost just $9. Billed monthly with no yearly lock-in, cancel any time, and clients plus external partners are always free.
Yes, and it costs you nothing extra. Invite them as external partners with the Project Admin role: they get full delivery power inside that one project, never use one of your seats, and cannot see your other projects, budgets or settings unless you explicitly share the budget with them.
Cost, rates and margin are visible only to managers and owners, enforced server-side on every field. Members and client-portal guests never see them. The client portal is read-only and money-free, and every change is captured in an audit log.
Yes. Forge is the spine of the xenzee graph. A project links to people and cost in Haven, traffic in Atlas, social in Delta and revenue in Nexus, all under one identity, which is what makes the ROI report possible.
Practically, yes: your first 30 days of any plan cost just $9, billing is monthly with no yearly lock-in, and you can cancel any time from your xenzee account, so trying Forge is a $9 decision, not a contract.
Stand up your first project in minutes and see the profit, not just the progress.
