Isiah — solo founder, Columbus shop.
Forge 614 is a one-founder studio in Columbus, started in 2024 to do the work most shops split across three vendors — websites, video, printed parts, and the AI wiring that ties them together.
Today it's a solo studio on Long Street: one founder who answers the phone, writes the code, and runs the printers — backed by a small network of vetted contractors when the job calls for it.
We bundle four trades onto one monthly bill because juggling three vendors is the thing that kills small businesses. Better that one shop owns it.
One bill. No middlemen.
Three vendors, three invoices, three excuses. We bundle so the math is simple and the blame has nowhere to hide.
Ship beats slide.
You see a live URL or a printed part by week three. Decks are for people who don't have shops.
Stay small. Stay sharp.
We cap at a handful of active clients. When we're full, we're full. The waitlist is real and so are the slots.
