UpForge is an independent startup registry and intelligence platform built to give emerging companies and founders a structured, lasting presence on the open web. We verify company and founder information, create permanent public records, and provide a unique UFRN for verified startups. Alongside the registry, UpForge publishes founder stories, startup research and ecosystem intelligence for founders, investors and analysts.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I’m the person behind UpForge.
I started building it around a simple problem: there is a huge amount of startup information online, but it’s often scattered across different platforms, difficult to verify, and tied to platforms that can change over time.
UpForge is our attempt to build a more structured public record for startups and founders — with verification, a permanent registry number, founder stories and startup intelligence in one place.
We’re still early, and I’d genuinely like to hear from founders, investors and builders here: what information would you want to see on a startup’s public profile before trusting it?
