Connect
Register a customer-controlled VPS and install the server-specific Forge Agent through a short-lived command.
Product / Public platform
Own your server. Ship your software.
Forge Cloud is Axio's deployment and application-operations platform. It connects software teams to VPS infrastructure they control, then coordinates the systems required to deploy and operate applications with clear boundaries.
Product thesis
Control without operational fragmentation.
Owning infrastructure can preserve control, but it also spreads responsibility across deployment scripts, data services, DNS, secrets, email, backups, and access policies. Forge Cloud brings those responsibilities into one tenant control plane while the server remains under the customer's control.
Core operating loop
Connect. Define. Deploy. Operate.
02→
Define
Organise applications, workers, data services, domains, secrets, and access boundaries inside a project.
03→
Deploy
Build from source, run a prebuilt Docker image, or publish a static site while keeping revision and health evidence visible.
04✓
Operate
Manage deployment state, service health, backups, transactional email, and qualified recovery operations from one control room.
Operating surface
The systems around a deployment.
Application deployments
Source applications, prebuilt images, static sites, and background workers can share one project boundary.
Project data services
Project-scoped Postgres and Redis services carry generated runtime connections, persistence controls, and backup metadata.
Domains and HTTPS
Generated service domains and custom domains use explicit DNS verification and managed HTTPS routing.
Secrets and access
Encrypted variables, project-aware configuration, and workspace boundaries keep operational access deliberate.
Transactional email
Project sender identities, domain verification, authenticated submission, and scoped API keys support transactional messages.
Backup evidence
Backup records distinguish stored data from verified restore capability so recovery claims remain precise.
Product boundary
Customer infrastructure remains customer infrastructure.
Forge Agent performs typed, authorised workload actions on a connected VPS. It is not a general workspace shell, and one workspace does not receive access to another workspace's servers or projects.
The Forge documentation remains the source of truth for supported hosts, current capabilities, setup requirements, and recovery qualifications.
