Building AI-Powered Tools

Smart applications for real-world challenges

Fennec Forge LLC builds AI-powered coaching and assistance applications. We turn domain expertise into intelligent tools that help people perform at their best.

Built by practitioners,
powered by AI

Fennec Forge LLC is a Pennsylvania-based software company focused on AI-powered coaching and assistance applications that solve problems their creators experience firsthand.

Every product we build starts with a real problem. Our founder is a competitive tabletop wargamer who needed better pre-game preparation tools. That frustration became our first product, and the pattern became our company philosophy.

We combine deep domain expertise with modern AI to create tools that feel like having an expert in your pocket. Whether you're preparing for a tournament, planning a practice, or managing a classroom, our applications deliver personalized, actionable guidance in seconds.

Based in Hanover, Pennsylvania, Fennec Forge is a registered LLC with a growing portfolio of products serving specialized communities across gaming, sports, and education.

How we build

Three principles guide everything we create.

Start with pain

Every product begins with a problem we experience personally. No market research guesswork — we build the tools we wish existed, then share them with communities who feel the same frustration.

AI as the engine

We use modern AI not as a gimmick but as the core technology that makes expert-level coaching accessible to everyone. Real-time, personalized guidance that adapts to each user's specific situation.

Serve the community

We price accessibly, engage authentically, and build features that our users actually ask for. Growth comes from making real people better at the things they care about most.

Matt Wendel - Founder, Fennec Forge LLC

Matt Wendel

Founder & CEO, Fennec Forge LLC

Matt is a competitive Warhammer 40K player, high school lacrosse coach, and the kind of person who solves problems by building things. When he couldn't find the tournament preparation tools he needed, he didn't wait for someone else to make them — he taught himself to code using AI development tools and built Tabletop Battle Buddy from scratch.

I had zero coding experience. I just had a problem worth solving and the stubbornness to figure it out.

That philosophy — identify a real problem, learn whatever it takes to solve it, then ship it — drives everything at Fennec Forge. Matt brings the same intensity to coaching lacrosse, where his experience with managing practices, tracking player development, and coordinating staff directly informs the company's second product, Coaches Forge.

Based in Hanover, Pennsylvania, Matt runs Fennec Forge as a bootstrapped operation, proving that domain expertise combined with modern AI tools can produce real products that serve real communities.
