ABOUT REFORGE

Reforge is evolving to empower product teams beyond education. Alongside expert training, we now offer AI-powered tools designed to help teams ship high-quality software faster. With two innovative tools already launched and more on the way, we combine cutting-edge software with the earned insights of the world’s top practitioners.

Our operating values are opinionated on purpose. We don’t aim to be everything to everyone. Their distinctness is meant to be used as a common set of threads that bond us together on our mission. We use our values to operate, solve problems, make decisions, evaluate/reward team members, and determine who and how we hire. You can see our full set of values and the decisions behind them.
