What Reforgers Does
Stop guessing. Start from startups that already proved demand — then reforge them into solo businesses with modern AI workflows.
Proven Startup Database

Each report gives you a wedge, MVP scope, workflow, pricing, risks, and a first customers plan — optimized for solo builders.
Updated regularly as we index new startups and generate new reports.
Why This Works
We don’t bet on random “AI ideas”. We start from startups that already proved demand — then reforge them for a new environment.
THEN
Many startups weren’t “bad ideas”
They often struggled because the economics and tooling didn’t allow a solo (or lean) version to work.
NOW (2026)
AI changes the unit economics
For many categories, AI makes “not viable before” become profitable by cutting marginal costs and compressing time-to-value.
The environment did.
Reforgers focuses on startups that were almost right — and shows how to relaunch them as solo, AI-native businesses.

It includes a wedge, positioning, MVP scope, a workflow, integrations, pricing, risks + mitigations, and a plan to get the first customers.
You don’t compete by rebuilding the whole product. You win by picking a narrower niche, shipping a focused workflow, and using modern AI to automate what used to require a team.
