Starting the Forge rebuild in public
Why Physician Forge is shifting from a media brand to a builder tribe — and what I'm shipping next.
I’m rebuilding Physician Forge in the open.
The goal is simple: unite builders like me — physicians and high-income clinicians who ship products, companies, and leverage outside a pure W2 — and show the work as it happens.
What’s live on staging now:
- A Forge-first homepage (belonging before brochure copy)
- One membership: $39/mo or $390/yr
- This Building stream for public ship notes
- First-party analytics (no Google)
Next: Stripe subscriptions wired end-to-end, then promote staging when it beats live.
