Your team builds for people. Does everyone agree who those people are?
Ask three people on your team to describe your customer, and you’ll hear about three different people. Marketing writes to one, product builds for another, and the tie goes to whoever talks last. Userforge gives everyone the same person to serve — someone real enough to argue with, and real enough to build for.
Without Userforge
- ✗The personas live in a deck, the deck lives in a folder, and nobody opens either one.
- ✗Half of every meeting goes to arguing about which imaginary customer is the real one.
- ✗Marketing makes promises to one person while product builds for another.
- ✗A new hire spends their first month guessing who all of this is for.
With Userforge
- ✓The whole team works from one set of people, kept on one page anyone can open.
- ✓Every page you make knows who it serves and what it needs to make happen.
- ✓Your drafts are read and marked up before they ship, not after.
- ✓When a client asks who it’s for, you send them a link.
The outcome
- ✓Arguments end quickly, because the evidence is sitting right there.
- ✓What you ship sounds like you know these people, because now you do.
- ✓A new teammate is dangerous by Tuesday, in the best sense of the word.
- ✓You stop guessing, and it shows in everything you make.
Generate user personas in four simple steps
There’s no certification and no workshop — you bring what you know about your business, and Userforge does the legwork.
Point it at your business
Give it one sentence about what you do, or simply your website address. It reads the real thing and starts from there, not from a template.
Meet your customers
Your customers assemble in front of you, with faces, goals, frustrations, and the words they’d actually say. You keep what’s true and strike what isn’t.
Make something for them
Start a landing page, an email, or an app screen. Say what it needs to make happen, and it builds itself in your design language, written for your people.
Get their feedback
They read it the way strangers will — quickly, honestly, ready to leave. Each note is pinned to an exact line and backed by evidence, and the ones you keep become the next revision with a single click.
User personas with a pulse
Demographics never convinced anyone of anything — people decide, for their own reasons. So every persona carries what actually tips a decision: the goals, the frustrations, the habits, the sentence they’d say in the hallway. All of it lives on one sheet your team will actually open.
- ✓Grounded first drafts — every persona begins from your site and your notes, not from a stock archetype with a stock smile.
- ✓Sections that bend — add a quote, a story, habits or motivators, under whatever labels your practice uses.
- ✓A face and a world — each persona gets a portrait and the place they spend their day, or you can bring your own photos.
- ✓The facts at a glance — age, role, city and the traits that tip their decisions sit in one clean strip.
- ✓Any language — every word on the sheet is yours to change.
“I want it to feel personal — without me becoming an expert.”
“Supercharge your workflow with AI-powered insights.”
“Every tool in my inbox says this. I skim past it.”
Receipt · 9 of 12 competitor pages say “AI-powered”
“I don’t email for prices. I have twenty minutes and a card.”
Receipt · your note: “buyers self-serve”
Then they read your pages.
You wrote it at 11pm and it reads fine to you — of course it does, you wrote it. Your personas read it the way strangers will: skimming, impatient, halfway out the door. They mark the exact lines where you win them and the exact lines where you lose them, and they show the evidence behind every note. There’s no score out of 100, because a score never told anyone what to fix.
- ✓Notes pinned to exact lines — you’ll never wonder what “make it pop” means, because you’ll know which sentence lost them and why.
- ✓Receipts, not vibes — every note cites the real quote or page it stands on, and when there’s no evidence it says so honestly.
- ✓You have the last word — keep the notes that ring true, strike the ones that don’t, and add the things only you could know.
- ✓Revise in one click — the notes you kept rewrite the page, and you run it past them again until it lands.
Everything you need to create and share user personas
There are no dashboards to feed and no settings to tend — just the work, moving forward.
Grounded, not generic
Everything begins with your site, your notes, and the words your customers actually used. You point the way, it does the drafting, and you make the calls.
Actions, not feature lists
Name what your people come to do, when it strikes, and why it matters to them. Every page gets a real job, and the feedback holds it accountable.
Pages that build themselves
Tell it what the page is for, and it assembles itself in your own design language — written for the person it has to win over.
It stays curious
It asks one good question at a time — like what the last customer who almost didn’t buy actually said — and every answer you give makes your personas sharper.
A face and a world
Every persona gets a portrait and the room they spend their day in, so your team sees a person instead of a bullet list. You can always bring your own photos.
Bring the team
Your colleagues edit alongside you, your clients follow a link, and nobody needs a login to be convinced.
Any language, your words
Build in French and ship in Japanese if you like — every label on every sheet bends to the way your team talks.
Share & print
Every persona has a live link that opens without an account and prints clean on paper — ready to take into the meeting.
A workspace per client
Agencies keep every client straight, because each one gets its own people, pages and context — and nothing bleeds across.
Start free. Upgrade when it’s working.
Free gets you started — you meet your personas and hear their first feedback. Pro raises the limits for teams who use this every week.
A real start — build your first personas, make a few pages, and hear what they think.
- ✓3 personas with portraits & scenes
- ✓3 pages & 5 persona reviews a month
- ✓10 context sources to ground them
- ✓Live share links & clean printing
- ✓Bring a collaborator
or $479 billed yearly — $39/mo
Higher limits across the board, and feedback on every draft rather than the first five. By comparison, one panel test costs more than a year of this.
- ✓As many personas and pages as you need
- ✓Feedback on every draft — no monthly cap
- ✓No cap on interview questions
- ✓100 context sources and 5 seats
- ✓Stronger AI on every draft and review
