We build software that stands.

Obelisk Forge is a UK software studio. We design, build and run products: for founders who need theirs shipped right, and under our own name.

Email us See what we’ve built

Raised to the sun. Move it with your pointer, or drag the obelisk to turn it.

We run our own products. That’s the proof.

Before we build yours, we build and operate our own. Ringlark is the first: early, real, and the reason our client work starts from experience instead of theory.

What we make

Four kinds of work, held to one standard: it has to keep standing once real people lean on it.

Custom software builds

pr, the house: built to be lived in

Web apps, mobile apps and platforms for founders, from the first version to the one that has to scale. Designed, built and shipped by the same team.

AI and automation

wedjat, the eye that sees and makes whole

Agents, integrations and automated workflows that do real work: calls placed, replies read, data moved. Built with the guardrails that make them safe to leave running.

Our own products

kheper, to come into being

We build and operate products under our own name, starting with Ringlark. What we learn running them goes straight into the work we do for you.

Tech consulting

djed, the pillar of stability

Architecture reviews, audits and CTO-as-a-service for teams that need a senior technical call before they commit.

How a build is raised

Egyptian workshops made every wall in the same four passes. Three thousand years on, it’s still the right order for software.

A round-topped stela: a screen, four thousand years early. Squared in red, drafted in red ochre, corrected in black, then painted.
