About the Studio

Built different.
By design.

Forge13 Studios is a software studio based in Maryland. Every product is conceived, designed, and shipped with a single obsession: does it actually solve the problem?

We build for real people with real problems. No bloat. No filler. No dark patterns. If it carries the F13 mark, it earned it.

What comes next is always in the forge.

What We Build

Three apps.
Three problems solved.

Each product is a standalone tool — precise, focused, and built for the people who actually need it.

Finance / Government
FedCompass
Know what you're owed before you walk out the door.

The federal retirement calculator every government employee deserves. Most federal workers have no idea what their retirement income actually looks like. FedCompass fixes that — covering all categories, showing the full picture.

  • FERS, LEO, Firefighter, ATC & CSRS
  • Pension + TSP + Social Security + VA disability
  • SRS bridge payment calculations
  • Survivor benefit planning
  • One-time purchase — no subscription

Health & Wellness
Burned
Your life is already the workout. We just keep score.

Snap your meals, track what you burn through daily movement, and let the math work itself out. No gym required. Built for people who live full lives outside of fitness culture — including women navigating perimenopause and menopause.

  • AI meal photo calorie identification
  • Passive step-based calorie burn tracking
  • Fiber Coach with life-stage aware goals
  • Push notifications at burn milestones
  • No ads, ever
Coming Soon
Personal Finance
DebtFree
A clear-eyed plan. No sugarcoating the numbers.

A debt payoff planner that gives you a real plan — not motivation quotes and vague advice. Add your debts, choose your strategy, and watch the balance drop one payment at a time. Alex, your AI financial guide, walks you through every step.

  • Avalanche & snowball payoff strategies
  • Alex — AI-powered financial guide
  • Dashboard, debt tracker & payoff timeline
  • No judgment. Just math.
  • iOS & Android

"We don't ship features.
We ship tools that work."

Every product that carries the F13 mark is built to a single standard: it has to actually solve the problem. No onboarding flows for onboarding flow's sake. No dark patterns. No ads. If it ships under Forge13, it was worth building.

Forge13 is a one-person studio. There's no team, no investors, no roadmap driven by anything other than what people actually need. That's not a limitation — it's the point.
