Why teams move

Operating infrastructure shouldn't slow down your product development.

Forte gives startups production-ready infrastructure without engineering or financial overhead. Teams using Forte often consolidate a dozen vendors and monthly bills over $1,000 into a single platform at half the cost.

Ship product, not infrastructure

Your best engineers should be building what customers asked for, not tuning autoscaling rules or tracing IAM failures.

Stop managing dozens of vendors

Forte provides one secure and stable platform to replace your patchwork of auth, CI/CD, database, observability, and cloud vendors.

Save money and time

Forte is designed for startups. Teams using Forte save money and time by managing less infra, paying only for what they use, and consolidating vendors.

Engineer-led migration

Our engineers handle the migration for you.

You'll have a dedicated Forte engineer to plan the work, move your stack in phases, handle the cutover, and train your team on the new environment. Your app stays online while we move it.

Free for qualifying migrations

  1. 01

    Discovery and planning

    We work with you to map your existing services, data, domains, and vendors to Forte and draft a migration plan.

    Output: Draft migration plan with estimated savings and timeline

  2. 02

    Review and phase the move

    We review the plan together, decide which vendors to consolidate, and agree on the order of work. Most teams start with compute migration and roll out database and vendor consolidation in phases.

    Output: An approved, phased migration plan

  3. 03

    Build and test

    We build your new Forte stack, replicate your data, and test everything against real production behavior before going live.

    Output: A tested Forte environment

  4. 04

    Migrate in phases

    We move each part of the stack in the agreed order. You can consolidate compute and databases first, then adopt Forte auth, payments, or other platform services when it makes sense.

    Output: Services moved in controlled phases

  5. 05

    Cut over to Forte

    We coordinate the final cutover and provide white-glove support through the transition. Your production services stay online while traffic moves.

    Output: Your production stack running on Forte

  6. 06

    Train your team

    After the move, a Forte engineer walks your team through deploying, debugging, scaling, monitoring, and managing the stack we migrated together. The training is free and tailored to how your team works.

    Output: Your team operates your new (and simpler) stack on Forte

The bottom line

Forte helps you save time and money on infrastructure

Mid-size startup teams save 82% monthly on average compared with running the same workloads on AWS or other vendors themselves.

Up to $5,000 in migration credits

We grant credits to cover your first few months on Forte and the overlap period when both environments are running for qualifying migrations.

Compare the bill before you move.

If you are on Vercel, Heroku, Render, Railway, or another managed platform, we will price the same workload on Forte so you can see the difference.

From Vercel

Vercel can get expensive as bandwidth grows. Forte includes data transfer, so a traffic spike does not create a separate bandwidth overage.

Run the numbers against Vercel

From Heroku

Heroku bills compute by the dyno, then adds separate services around it. Forte includes observability, auth, and networking without another row of add-ons.
