Built for hardware startups & SMBs

The PLM that actually fits your team.

oroForge is the minimum viable PLM for hardware teams — upload electronics and mechanical BOMs in minutes, centralize your manufacturing files, and manage changes with an ECO process that scales with you.

Built by hardware founders. Now live.

What hardware teams are saying

This is as important to hardware development as GitHub is to software development.

Enterprise PLM wasn't built for you.

Tools like Arena, Windchill, and Agile PLM were designed for large organizations with dedicated implementation budgets. Most hardware startups and SMBs end up managing BOMs in spreadsheets, tracking revisions in email threads, and losing critical decisions in Slack.

Our promise

oroForge gives small hardware teams a purpose-built PLM they can actually use — up and running the same day, priced for startups, and powerful enough to scale with you.

What you get

Startup-Friendly PLM

BOM management, file storage, and change management in one tool — the foundation a hardware team needs to go from prototype to production without the enterprise overhead.

  • Upload electronics and mechanical BOMs in minutes
  • Central file storage for STEP files, Gerbers, and datasheets
  • Kanban ECO process to manage and approve design changes
  • Toggle ECO enforcement on when you're ready to scale

AI Agents: BOM & Documentation

Coming Soon

Intelligent agents purpose-built for the most tedious parts of hardware engineering — so your team stays focused on building, not paperwork.

  • Auto-generate and maintain BOM documentation
  • Identify component risks, pricing changes, and alternatives
  • Draft vendor-ready RFQs and technical documents
  • Keep docs in sync as designs evolve

Up in Minutes

Upload electronics and mechanical BOMs in minutes, not weeks. No sales call. No consultant. No implementation fee.

ECO Workflow

A Kanban-based engineering change order process captures every design change — who approved it, why it changed, and what version to build from.

Central File Store

All your STEP files, Gerbers, datasheets, and drawings in one place — linked to the BOM line items they belong to.

ECO Toggle

Enable ECO enforcement only when your team needs it. Stay lightweight during prototyping; add change-control structure when you scale past it.
