Start with a free Dossier. Go deeper when it's worth it.
Fractional Forge is human-curated. There are no dashboards to sign up for and no monthly tiers — just experienced people doing the work, starting with a Design Dossier that costs you nothing.
Your first Design Dossier is free
Describe your idea in a short brief — a paragraph to a page. We build your Design Dossier: an auditable engineering-and-costing model, delivered as an Excel workbook, where every number traces back to a formula you can check. A senior engineer reviews the whole thing before it reaches you, usually within a day.
From there, we work together
Advisory
We work through your Dossier together — pressure-testing the design, the costs and the sourcing, and shaping the plan you raise on. Scoped to your project.
Capital
Fundraising on an introducer / success-fee basis — we raise, we take a success fee, and if there's no raise there's no fee. Plus grants and non-dilutive routes.
Build
Introductions to a curated network of Europe's best design, engineering and prototype-manufacturing partners — so you don't build a factory to ship a product.
What it costs
There's no standard price list, because no two hardware companies are the same. The first Design Dossier is free. Anything beyond it — advisory, the raise, build introductions — is scoped to your project and agreed up front. Fundraising is introducer / success-fee: no raise, no fee.
A self-serve version is on the way. For now, every Dossier is hand-built and engineer-checked — which is the point.
