FORGED extends professional treatment into daily life — for the person, the family who loves them, and the clinical team that can’t be there at 2am.
Treatment works. Then it ends, and the structure goes with it. Most relapses happen in the months after discharge — not because people stop caring, but because no one is watching anymore.
Left alone during the hardest moments, with no one who can tell what’s actually happening in their body.
Watching for signs they were never trained to read, afraid that asking the wrong question will make things worse.
Losing visibility the day a client walks out the door — exactly when the risk is highest and the data goes dark.
Three people share every recovery: the client, the family, and the clinical team. FORGED is the system that keeps all three connected — quietly, in the background, every day.
Wearable, Forge AI, breathing protocols, daily check-in.
HRV + sleep, read in real time.
Meaningful flags, KIPU-aware, reviewed before anything is published.
Qualitative weather, never raw biometrics. Guidance on how to help.
Wearable paired, a real baseline established, family invited in — all before discharge day.
Check-in, breathing, Forge AI, and the evening journal all adapt their tone to how the body is actually doing.
The state machine reads HRV and sleep continuously and shifts the whole experience the moment something changes.
Meaningful flags reach the team through KIPU, held for clinician review — never auto-published, never noise.
A fictional composite, built from the moments FORGED is actually designed to catch.
Danny leaves residential treatment. The wearable is already paired; a baseline HRV and sleep pattern is already logged from the last two weeks inside.
Sleep drops to six hours, then five. HRV trends down two nights running. The state shifts to yellow before Danny would have said anything was wrong.
HRV crashes overnight. The app locks to the breathing protocol. No questions, no choices — just the orb, and a voice that says stay here.
The flag reaches Danny’s counselor as a queued note, not an alarm. She brings it into their next session instead of finding out too late.
HRV and sleep hold in range for three weeks straight. Danny opts into the deeper reflective prompts — no longer just getting through the day.
“I didn’t reach out. I didn’t have to. It just knew, and it was already there before I fell apart.”

Danny’s been steady all week. Nothing needed from you today — just good to know.
| Visibility past discharge | Clinicians see meaningful signal for the first time in the highest-risk window — the weeks right after a client leaves. |
| KIPU-aware documentation | Flags that clear the threshold route into KIPU as a queued note for clinician review — never auto-published. |
| Objective, not self-reported | HRV and sleep give the team a signal that does not depend on a client remembering, or wanting, to disclose. |
| Less paperwork, not more | ASAM-aligned check-ins generate structured data automatically, instead of adding another form for staff to chase. |
| Built to fit existing workflows | Configured around how your clinical team already documents and escalates — not a system they have to relearn. |
| A dedicated liaison during rollout | Someone from FORGED is embedded with your team through onboarding, not a support ticket queue. |
| A role for the family that helps | Loved ones get qualitative guidance — never raw biometrics — so they know when to reach out and when to give space. |
| Fewer anxious, unproductive calls | Families stop guessing. The portal tells them what kind of day it has been, in plain language. |
| A reason to stay connected | The relationship with the facility continues past discharge instead of ending the day a client walks out. |
| A number, not a verdict | Sober-day counts and check-in history are framed as data, never as a streak to lose. |
| Outcomes data no one else has | Objective post-discharge signal that most programs simply do not collect today. |
| A story families can feel | Something tangible to point to when a family asks what happens after their loved one leaves. |
We build this together. No software licensing during the pilot — just the work of getting it right for your clients and your team.
Clinical data deserves plain answers. Here’s what’s live today, and what’s on the roadmap.

| Apple HealthKit (native iOS) | Available now |
| Clinician review before anything publishes | Available now |
| Family sees qualitative weather only, never raw biometrics | Available now |
| Epic FHIR R4 integration | On roadmap |
| Native iOS app (in planning) | On roadmap |
“I built this because I needed it and it didn’t exist. I know what it’s like to leave treatment and have no one who can tell what’s actually happening in my body until it’s already a crisis.”
Erin is building FORGED from inside her own recovery, in direct partnership with the clinical teams she’s asking to trust it. Every decision — the state machine, the tone rules, the KIPU integration — traces back to a real morning that needed a different answer.
Building the facility partnerships this depends on.
Addiction medicine and ASAM criteria expertise, keeping the state machine honest.
Shaping how the family portal actually gets used.
The state machine, the integrations, the parts no one sees.
No software licensing during the pilot. Dedicated implementation support. A seat at the table while we build this.
Someone from the FORGED team will reach out within two business days to schedule a conversation.
