CMS

ForgeCMS

ForgeCMS is a headless content platform built around typed, flat collections and a single editing surface. No page builder, no plugin marketplace — just the content model your product needs, generated from code.

The Challenge

Every CMS we inherited shipped a plugin marketplace, a page builder and a permissions matrix nobody used. Editors still asked us to change copy for them.

The Solution

ForgeCMS models content as flat, typed collections with one editing surface. Schemas are defined in code, so the editor UI is generated and always matches production. There is no page builder and no plugin API to drift.
