Forest Integrations

Forest Integrations

Simple systems for people
doing meaningful work.

We help small businesses, creative people and community-rooted work get their tools working together, quietly and in their own voice, so there's more time for the work only you can do.

A free 30-minute conversation. No pitch.

How it works

One clear path. Go only as far as you want.

Step one

A free call

Free · 30 minutes

We get to know you, your work and where you want to go. Then we tell you honestly whether we're the right people. If we're not, we'll say so.

Book a free call

Step two · where it starts

A look at how your business runs

From $250

Two ways in: a Business Map for a clear first look, or a Business Systems Audit when there's more to untangle.

See the two ways in

Step three · if you want it

We build it with you

Usually three months · priced to your work

We build what the map points to, and teach you as we go. No black boxes: you own it, and you'll know how to run it.

If you go on to build with us within 30 days, your whole first-session fee counts toward it.

Step two, two ways in

Start where your business actually is.

After the free call, we'll send you the one we think fits. If you already know, you can begin right here. These are founding prices, for the people who work with us first.

For a clear first look

Your Business Map

$250

  • One 90-minute session together, at your pace, on screen.
  • A written map: what's working, what needs care, what's tangled, and what's missing.
  • Three clear priorities, and one small working tool set up for you.

For more people, more tools, more tangle

The Business Systems Audit

$777 · one session

One three-hour session, in depth, across six areas of how your business runs. You leave with a written audit and a clear order of what to tend first.

$1,777 · three sessions

For a business that's complicated, or a situation that's messy, and needs more time. Three sessions over about a month that work together: an opening audit, a midway session where we set up systems with you step by step, support in between, and a final review of your new workflow. Three for less than three on their own.

Not sure which? Book the free call and we'll tell you honestly.

Why we do this

Because people matter more than the tools.

We built Forest Integrations because we're excited to serve the people and communities that today's technology hasn't yet risen to meet. As the tools change faster than ever, we meet our clients where they are, take the time to understand their work, and build and grow it with them.

Sasha and Alec met in Southern Oregon, in the forest, drawn to the same question: how do you build systems that truly work for people, and do some good in the world?

Humans were never built for the repetitive busywork. We were built to create, to care for each other, and to dream up what comes next. So we start with you and the people you serve, and only then reach for the tools.

Is this you?

If any of these land, you're in the right place.

  • You're doing the work of five people, and your systems are held together with browser tabs, sticky notes and memory.
  • You've tried ChatGPT or Claude, but it forgets everything and never quite sounds like you.
  • You bought the software, and somehow it made your work feel more rigid, not less.
  • You're a practitioner, artist or maker, and every tool assumes you're a tech startup.
  • The busywork between you and your clients eats the hours you'd rather spend on the actual work.
  • You want AI in your business, in a way that keeps your voice and your clients' privacy at the center.

About us

Two paths, one forest.

Sasha

Sasha's roots are in conscious land stewardship and alternative, creative community, where care for the earth, for art and for each other is part of everyday life. She brings that grounding to technology, asking how the tools of our time can widen our reach, deepen our connections, and help protect life on Earth.

Alec

Alec has spent his career learning the technical side of things: cloud security, data protection, and the architecture that keeps a business sound. He cares deeply about privacy and sovereignty, and he's here to help creative thinkers build strong, secure foundations for the good they're bringing into the world.

Systems that hold both your freedom and your safety.

We build in service of people making real things: communities, businesses and projects that do real good, with tools that protect what's theirs while giving them room to grow.

It's a strange, fast, remarkable time to be alive. We're learning these tools as quickly as they change, so we can help the people around us not only keep up, but stay in charge of their own work.

Rooted in the living world.

The same care that tends a garden can shape a system. We help you grow both at once: roots deep in your own values and your community, and branches reaching into the tools that let your work travel further.

A new dawn.

Technology is growing and adapting with us, and us with it. That makes shaping your own tools a craft you can come to know. If you can describe what you want, you can build far more than you'd expect, in a way that is truly yours. This is the dawn of something new, and the door is open.

Our vision · a new dawn

Building itself is becoming a creative act, and we would love to build it with you.

Questions

Things people ask before they begin.

What if I'm not technical?

That's exactly who this is for. You don't need experience with these tools to learn them. We work at your pace, on screen, with you in the driver's seat: you'll see where things are stored, how they're made, and how they're saved. If anything gets confusing, we pause and make sure you're back on track before we go on.

What happens on the free call?

A conversation where we really get to know you: what you do, where you want to go, where the friction is or what feels stuck, the tools you already use, and the tools you'd like to be using.

Why "from $250"?

It depends on where you are in your business. $250 is the starting point for a first look together. Many people need something more in-depth, and we prefer to work with people for three months at a time. We'll agree on the right shape and price with you on the free call, before anything starts.

Do I have to keep working with you?

No. You leave the first session able to act on your own, whether or not you build anything more with us.

It all starts with a conversation.
