Forge Weather API was founded in 2021 by Elena Voss (CEO) and Sam Whitfield (CTO) with a singular mission: deliver fast, accurate, reliable weather and location data for developers building the next generation of mission-critical applications.
We were frustrated. Existing weather APIs were slow, geographically limited, and designed for the wrong use cases. They served hobbyists well; they failed enterprises. We set out to build the weather platform we wished existed: sub-100ms latency globally, 99.95% uptime, granular condition codes for precision agriculture and energy trading, and a developer experience that didn't require fighting documentation.
Today, Forge serves over 2,000 companies—from logistics platforms to renewable energy operators to AgTech startups. Our data obsession runs deep. Priya Raman, Head of Data, leads a team that continuously refines our forecast models, blending NOAA, MeteoFrance, and regional data sources. We treat latency and accuracy as non-negotiable. Every millisecond and percentage point matters when your customers rely on you.
We're a fully remote team spanning San Francisco, London, and Singapore, backed by tier-one VCs. Our culture prizes ruthless pragmatism, technical excellence, and customer obsession. We ship fast, break things rarely, and listen relentlessly to our users.
Whether you're optimizing delivery routes, protecting crops from frost, planning solar generation, or building the next killer fitness app, Forge is here to turn weather into a competitive advantage.
