The progress tracking tool that helps you learn and build new skills, and share the progress with others. Growing up, I loved video games and RPGs that allowed me to grind out experience and level up different skills. I created ProgressForge as a way to break free from my own phone addiction and the endless pull of social media. It's designed to help others, like me, focus on real-life progress and channel their energy into meaningful skill development. By gamifying personal growth, ProgressForge turns everyday improvement into an adventure worth sharing. Yes! You can request a refund within 7 days of your purchase.
