About

Forge Automation is a Toronto, Ontario-based on-demand CNC machined parts manufacturer — backed by Y Combinator — delivering custom precision metal parts in 4 days or less through software-enabled automated factories that eliminate the weeks-long lead times of traditional machine shops. Founded in 2022 by co-founders Timothy Seto (CEO, University of Waterloo, former Apple/Formlabs/iRobot intern with 10+ years machining experience) and Walter Raftus (CTO, AI and Mechatronics Engineering at Waterloo, former NVIDIA/Trexo Robotics/Intel intern), who met at the Canada Wide Science Fair and launched the company immediately after graduation. Forge's proprietary Foundry software automatically generates machine-ready toolpaths from engineer-uploaded CAD models with manufacturing intent, bypassing traditional technical drawing workflows. Forge has shipped thousands of parts to engineers across North America, serving Fortune 10 companies to early-stage hardware startups. Two service tiers: Forge On-Demand (order custom parts through the online platform) and Forge Reserve Machines (dedicated CNC mills with maintenance and machinists for companies needing guaranteed 4-day SLA production capacity).
