Summary
Forward is an AI-powered tool that lets API and SDK companies integrate their product into a customer's codebase with a single command. Instead of requiring customers to read lengthy documentation and manually write integration code, Forward's agent analyzes the customer's repository, writes the integration on a new branch, runs tests, and opens a pull request for review. The product targets companies in payments, auth, observability, messaging, voice, and video where the integration step often causes user churn. The goal is to eliminate the gap between signup and first successful API call, reducing activation time from hours to minutes.
