Our Story
Fora Soft builds video and AI software for streaming, video calls, e-learning, telemedicine, and security. 250+ projects shipped since 2005 by 50 in-house engineers.
Every project is personal. The CEO interviews every engineer we hire (1 in 400 applicants gets an offer), founders stay close to delivery, and small senior teams take on the hard parts: real-time video, low latency, compliance.
In 2025 we rebuilt our process around agentic engineering. The same team now ships 4-10x faster.
What Sets Us Apart
Video is all we do
Since 2005 we have built one thing: video and real-time software. Streaming, WebRTC, computer vision, AI agents. 250+ shipped projects mean the expensive mistakes were made long ago, on our own time.
A hiring bar most agencies would call absurd
1 in 400 applicants gets an offer, and the CEO interviews every engineer personally. That is why clients stay: VALT has kept us as their only dev team for 10+ years.
Agentic engineering since 2025
We rebuilt delivery around AI agents. The same senior team now ships 4-10x faster, with the same code review bar.
Premier Verified means Clutch independently confirmed Fora Soft is a legally registered business, has had its financial risk status checked (Creditsafe: Moderate Risk), and is backed by 23 verified client reviews averaging 5.0 stars.
