"I built a freelance coaching system from my phone. No laptop. No funding. Here's what I found."

It started as a terminal script in Termux — a daily tracker that gave people leverage points based on their progress. Ugly. But it opened my eyes.
The moment everything changed was when I tested it to find real-time buyers actively looking for help online. Real Upwork listings. High intent. People with deadlines and budgets.
That's when I knew freelancers needed this more than anyone.
So I built FORGE. Not just a lead finder — a coaching system that plans your day, finds real buyers, and makes freelancing feel less like surviving alone.
I've been using it myself. It's impressed me.
Looking for 3-5 freelancers to try it this week. No pitch — just honest feedback.
