We build and operate a small portfolio of independent DBAs from Santa Clarita, California.
Forework Ventures is structured to build ventures slowly and own them for the long term. Each DBA keeps its own brand, products, and practice.
We are 100% privately owned and choose the work we want to keep doing.
Stackwell Technologies The tech partner
Stackwell Technologies is a technology partner for micro, small, and medium businesses. It provides a wide range of services to its clients, from CRMs to web development and IT services.
Rawpeg RAW+JPEG culling for photographers
Rawpeg is a fast, keyboard-driven culling app for Mac and Windows. Photographers mark the keepers, and every other RAW is set aside to free up disk space.
Commercial and portrait photography
Stillmark Photo is a photography practice working with clients on commercial and protrait assignments. The studio is in early operations and preparing for wider launch in 2026.
A short list of the principles that guide how Forework Ventures and its operating businesses are structured.
We build to own, not to flip. Our ventures are structured to explore long-term businesses, particularly in the digital space.
Each brand is a DBA that stands on its own — its own name, customers, and identity.
Our companies are built around a small number of people doing high-quality work. Growth is a side effect of doing the work well, not the goal itself.
Forework Ventures is the formal LLC that supports our DBAs, but is not typically a customer-facing brand.
Forework Ventures is headquartered in Santa Clarita, in the northwestern Los Angeles area, but our team is distributed across the United States.
