The Reality

Most alumni networks exist in name only.

Here's what institutions are actually dealing with:

✕
Alumni data trapped in outdated Excel sheets — stale from the day they were made
✕
WhatsApp groups that become unmanageable — no moderation, no data, no control
✕
Students and alumni with no structured way to connect, mentor, or hire each other
✕
Events coordinated manually — low RSVP rates, no feedback loop, no analytics
✕
Employers can't access your talent pool without going through overworked staff
✕
Zero structured data for NAAC / NBA alumni engagement and placement criteria
The Platform

Eight modules. One cohesive platform.

Each module is live and tested — not a prototype, not a roadmap item.

👥
Alumni Directory
Searchable by batch, degree, company, location. Verified profiles with connection management.
💼
Jobs Portal
Alumni and employers post opportunities. Students apply in-app with resume upload and real-time status tracking.
🤝
Mentorship
Structured alumni-to-student mentoring with session scheduling, progress tracking, and capacity control.
📅
Events
RSVP management, attendee tracking, volunteer coordination, and post-event feedback built in.
🗂️
Groups
Communities by batch, department, region, or interest. Public and private with full moderation tools.
💬
Messaging
Connection-gated messaging — only accepted connections can message, eliminating unsolicited contact.
🔔
Notifications
In-app notification centre for connections, jobs, events, and mentorship with user-controlled preferences.
⚙️
Admin Console
Full user management, content moderation, analytics dashboard, audit logs, and 5-tier role control.
📊

NAAC & NBA accreditation — we generate the data they ask for.

Alumni engagement, career placement tracking, and industry interaction are assessed under NAAC Criterion 5 and NBA Programme Outcomes. ForgeCircle gives you a structured dashboard with the documentation that manual WhatsApp groups simply cannot produce. Your next accreditation cycle gets real, exportable evidence.

Multi-Year Pricing

Priced for long-term institutional partnerships.

We offer multi-year contracts so your institution benefits from cost certainty — and we can plan the roadmap around your needs.

💡

Why multi-year?

Alumni platforms take 6–12 months to reach full adoption. A 3 or 5-year commitment lets us plan together, prioritise your feature requests, and deliver meaningful outcomes — not just a licence. Early partner pricing is locked in for the full term.

Partner Benefits

What partner institutions receive.

Logo, institution colors, custom domain. It feels like your own product.

✓

Data migration from your existing records

Alumni lists in Excel or CSV imported and cleaned before launch.

✓

Admin training and onboarding

Your alumni relations team gets hands-on training before go-live.

✓

Direct access to the founders

Not a helpdesk ticket. You reach us directly. Your feedback goes straight into the product.

✓

Early-partner pricing — permanent

The rate you sign at is locked for your full contract term, regardless of how we grow.

A note from the founders — before you decide.

We're a small product team based in Chennai. AMET University is our live client, and we are proud of what we have built. ForgeCircle is a working, tested platform — but we are still early. That is why we offer multi-year pricing at rates that genuinely reflect where we are, not where we claim to be. You get a fully working product, direct founder access, and pricing locked in for your full contract term. In return, we ask for honest feedback and the trust that comes with a long-term partnership. We will be upfront about what the platform does today and what is on the roadmap. No overselling.
