Product builds for Chicago fintech, B2B and service firms
Our partner company, Technomart LLC, is based in Skokie, just north of Chicago. Forjwell designs and builds web platforms, client portals and fintech products for Chicago teams, and works the same Central-time hours as the city.
Trading, freight and professional services
Chicago has long been a centre for trading and derivatives exchanges, and it remains a hub for freight and logistics, manufacturing and distribution, and a deep bench of agencies, consultancies and professional-service firms. Those sectors share a need for software that handles money, records and clients carefully: who can see what, what was approved and when, and a clear audit trail.
Relevant work
Verus, a trader-verification platform we designed and built, is directly relevant to trading communities. It replaces screenshots with verified records, reputation profiles and a leaderboard ranked on the record. Forjwell One is relevant to any service firm that manages clients: we built it to run our own agency, with an internal board from milestone to subtask and a portal where each client sees only the work shared with them.
For B2B and distribution businesses, the same building blocks apply: partner portals, role-based access, integrations with ERP and accounting systems, and a clear record of approvals.
