Frequently Asked Questions

Last updated: April 2026

What is Get It Forged?

Get It Forged is an AI-powered manufacturing platform. Describe your product idea (text, sketch, or photo), and our AI classifies the manufacturing type, matches you to vetted factories worldwide, generates professional RFQs, compares quotes, and tracks production milestones — all in one place.

How much does it cost?

The free tier lets you try the AI classifier with text descriptions. The Pro plan ($49/month) unlocks full features: Vision classification (photo/sketch upload), factory matching, RFQ generation and sending, quote comparison, landed cost calculation, NNN agreement generation, and patent search.

How does AI classification work?

Upload a photo or describe your product. Claude AI analyzes it and determines the manufacturing type (CNC, injection molding, casting, 3D printing, etc.), complexity level, estimated MOQ range, unit cost range, and regulatory flags. Pro users get Vision-based analysis from photos.

Where do the manufacturers come from?

Two sources: (1) Our vetted database of personally verified factories, and (2) Veridion's global database of 120M+ suppliers. Vetted factories get a trust bonus in AI ranking. Veridion results fill gaps but are flagged as unvetted with appropriate risk warnings.

What is an RFQ?

A Request for Quotation. Our AI generates a professional RFQ document based on your product classification, then sends it directly to your matched manufacturers via email. When quotes come back, AI compares them across price, MOQ, lead time, tooling costs, and landed cost.

What is a landed cost?

The total cost of getting a product from the factory to your door — including unit price, tooling, shipping, customs duties, insurance, and inspection fees. Our AI estimates this so you can compare the true cost across suppliers, not just the quoted unit price.

What is an NNN agreement?

A Non-Disclosure, Non-Use, Non-Circumvention agreement — the standard IP protection document for manufacturing in China. Our AI generates one tailored to your product and chosen manufacturer, which you should review with a lawyer before signing.

Can you search for patents?

Yes. Pro users can run patent searches using PQAI (semantic AI search) and Lens.org (claims keyword search). Results are deduplicated and analyzed by Claude for infringement risk. This is a research tool, not legal advice — always consult a patent attorney.

How do milestones work?

Every project follows 8 steps: Intake, Classifying, Matching, Quoting, Sample, Production, QC, Shipped. Each milestone has a status (pending, in progress, completed, blocked) with notes. You and your manufacturer update milestones as the project progresses.

Is my data safe?

Product photos are stored on Backblaze B2 (encrypted at rest). Database is PostgreSQL on Railway with automatic backups. All API communication uses HTTPS. We do not share your product details with manufacturers until you explicitly send an RFQ.
