Stuck in the dreaded ‘idea phase’?

Don’t worry, we’re idea whisperers. We’ll turn your brainwaves into wireframes faster than you can say startup unicorn.

Our design team?

They’ll make your app so gorgeous, even your grandma will want to download it. And that’s saying something!

Need your app live like yesterday?

Our CI/CD pipeline is so smooth, even Usain Bolt would be impressed by the speed of your launch.

Dark or light?

It doesn’t matter! Our designers prepare all the design variants you need.

Launching a fresh product?

Did you know? Octopuses have three hearts and blue blood!

Need a wireframe?

We create them in Axure so you don’t have to! Click and tap to try out your software even before it’s built. No mistakes – just small refinements.

Tech list, architecture, and estimation –

the holy trinity of our high-level planning!

Got a big idea? Meet your new BFF – our analyst!

They’ll help turn your brainchild into reality, tackling every challenge along the way like a pro!

Skipping analytics? Yikes!

70% of software flops happen because of poor requirements. Our analysts are here to dodge those bullets for you.

Turning your idea into a Minimum Loveable Product?

Our analyst will nail down the target audience, beat the competition, and make sure your product has that WOW factor!

Consider it a blueprint for success!

We take your vision, split it into functional and non-functional requirements, and craft easy-to-digest user stories so no detail gets lost.

Want to see your product’s bones?

Our wireframes are the blueprint – no frills yet, just function. It’s where your idea starts to take shape, but it’s still flexible for those last-minute tweaks!

Avoid the chaos!

Without analytics, you’re looking at costly redesigns, time delays, and some seriously awkward team convos. We keep things smooth and on track.

Testing starts before you even hit 'go.'

We make sure all requirements are doable, clear, and meet your user’s needs – all before development kicks off. No hidden dangers here!

Want to picture your product in color?

Request concept designs for visuals, logos, and UI. We make sure it looks as good as it works!

No guessing games here – just numbers you can count on!

Thanks to our detailed analysis, we can estimate your timeline and budget with laser precision.

It’s the power of teamwork at its finest!

Our analysts team up with tech wizards, designers, and marketers to make sure your product doesn’t just work – it shines.

How many servers does it take to develop your product?

Let's do the math: DEV for development, TEST for testing, DEMO for demos – and we have them all!

Do it together!

Each development task undergoes a code review by an experienced developer.

We know what we're doing!

That's why we write up a development plan so you know what we're doing, too.

This is my architecture.

There are many like it, but this one’s mine. – Top project developers outline the architecture, and off-project developers must approve it before we start the development of your system. It’s our 'secure architecture' approach.

Success is what we deliver to you.

Our proactive Customer Success Manager reaches out to assess your satisfaction with the product and to address any questions you may have. All for success!

Our value is a happy client

Our Customer Success manager checks in from time to time, making sure everything’s smooth and there are no 'oops' moments sneaking up on you.

Think of it like stretching before a marathon – essential to avoid cramping later!

Before we start building, we assemble the team, create the plan, and sketch out the architecture.

We handpick your project’s squad – PMs, devs, testers, and more.

It’s like putting together a superhero team, minus the capes (most days).

We map out your project’s timeline with our trusty Gantt chart.

It’s basically your project’s GPS – and we promise, no 'recalculating.'

We build your app’s foundation strong and scalable!

So when your user count skyrockets, your system doesn’t throw a tantrum.

It’s like spring cleaning, but for code.

We organize everything in Jira, turning a chaotic list of tasks into a beautifully streamlined to-do list.

With us, you’re never in the dark!

We give regular updates like your favorite social media feed – you’ll always know what’s happening, minus the cat memes. (Though we love those too!)

Every couple of weeks, we give you a shiny new demo to play with.

It’s like getting a sneak peek at your app before it hits the red carpet.

No awkward 'Haven’t heard from you in a while' moments here.

Our PM keeps you in the loop with weekly updates, so you’ll always know what’s going on.

Testing isn’t just a phase; it’s a lifestyle!

Before your product even takes its first baby step, we’ve already put it through enough tests to make the Avengers proud.

What power? The power of test cases.

Test what? Test Qase.io – we use it to manage all the user scenarios and ensure everything works as you need it.

Only kids play in sandboxes? Nope!

Our testers use them to test various payment scenarios.

Quack-quack!

There are 60 yellow rubber ducks in our office. No wonder our developers finish tasks so fast!

Don't know where to start?

Start with eager2develop@forasoft.com – describe your product idea, and we'll do the rest!

Got a wild app idea?

We’ll turn it into reality faster than you can say, 'Let’s make a TikTok clone, but for cats!'

Our secret sauce?

Smooth workflows, clear communication, and a dash of that’s-what-I-call-great-customer-service vibes. You could say we’re like the Netflix of dev teams – easy to binge and hard to quit.

Our video streaming projects?

Think Netflix, but better. Yeah, we said it.

Don’t just build it – nail it!

Whether you need a VR game or a video streaming platform, our devs are like Gandalf: they always deliver… on time!

Why Us

Clients apply to us because of our narrow niche specialization. Since 2005 we have not been doing any projects except video streaming and real-time software development. All processes at Fora Soft are tailored to it.
Example: when a new developer joins us, they are not permitted to work on a client’s project however senior they are. They first learn the specifics of video/audio software development and develop their 2-week long test AI video project.

Processes

Get a consultation

Ideation & Scoping

During a personal consultation, our specialist will discuss your project goals and vision to recommend the best technology and create a custom architecture plan. From the first meeting, we'll provide valuable insights on development, identify potential challenges, and suggest ways to avoid them.

Calculations

After the consultation, we'll give you first realistic project estimates, a list of features, and a tailored architecture plan.

Planning & Visualization

Our analysts create a wireframe, a clickable black-and-white prototype outlining all project pages and screens. We then update the initial estimates to better reflect new details and edge cases identified during the wireframing process.

Development, Design & Testing

Throughout development, we consistently test the project using various methods. You will receive testing reports along with status reports as needed.

Development, Design & Testing

The team creates the development plan containing all the tasks, risks, and priorities. The project manager works with you to decide the development pace and demo dates. Once development starts, you'll receive weekly status reports detailing what has been completed and what's planned for the next week.

Development, Design & Testing

We form the development team based on your project's needs and assign an experienced project manager to oversee it. We select developers with relevant experience specific to your project.

Launch

When the product is ready for launch, we assist with deployment on your servers to ensure a smooth launch. We verify that all services and components are functioning correctly and perform load testing to confirm system stability. For mobile apps, we also help with app store submissions to ensure your app gets published in the App Store or Play Market.

Post-launch Support

After a successful launch, we support the product throughout its life cycle. We handle updates and scaling as needed, implement minor and major updates, release new versions, and add new features.
