The partnership combines webAI’s collaborative intelligence platform with Forge’s operational expertise. Forge, led by CEO John Ezzell—who previously scaled an Oracle-focused services firm before its acquisition by Deloitte—plans to deploy specialized "AI Personas" that function as domain experts. These models operate within a private network, allowing organizations to maintain control over their data, workflows, and infrastructure rather than relying on external general-purpose subscriptions.

Forge Commits $30 Million to webAI for Enterprise Intelligence
The enterprise artificial intelligence market is pivoting away from generic models toward private, specialized systems as Forge AI Deployment commits $30 million to partner with webAI. The agreement aims to move beyond experimental AI demos, focusing on integrating sovereign intelligence directly into proprietary corporate workflows and controlled hardware infrastructure.
David Stout, co-founder and CEO of webAI, envisions a "decision factory" architecture where intelligence is tailored to unique institutional knowledge. By utilizing webAI’s Intelligence Delivery Network, Forge will manage the end-to-end architecture and model optimization for large-scale enterprise clients. This approach targets a shift in the industry, where AI transitions from a cloud-based service to a privately owned asset, deployable even in air-gapped or disconnected environments.
