About Forgepoint
Summary
Forgepoint builds AI agents for the manufacturing back office, starting with Frank, an AI inside sales rep that handles the full RFQ-to-quote workflow for job shops and industrial manufacturers. Frank qualifies incoming requests, prices parts against the shop's cost model, sends quotes for human approval, follows up with customers, and logs every action to the CRM and ERP. It replaces the manual quoting work done by sales reps, estimators, and engineers across injection molding, metal fabrication, CNC machining, and adjacent trades.
Business model
Demo-gated sales with no self-serve pricing published.
Go-to-market
Forgepoint sells to manufacturing shops of varying sizes across the United States, reaching reps, estimators, and engineers who handle quoting daily. Buyers can request a demo directly from the website.
