DataForge is a free, self-hosted business-data enrichment platform. It scrapes target websites for emails, technology stacks, SSL status, and site speed, then cross-references public US government registries — the FCC ULS telecom-license database, the NPI healthcare-provider registry, and SAM.gov federal-contractor records — and verifies addresses over SMTP. Local AI (via Ollama) handles summaries and classification, so enrichment runs entirely on your own machine.
Positioned as an MIT-licensed, open-data alternative to paid enrichment services like Apollo, ZoomInfo, or Clearbit: the data provenance is public registries rather than a proprietary panel, and nothing leaves your infrastructure.
