Description

Empower your teams with enhanced capabilities for faster and more extensive application deployment. Effortlessly automate the downloading, testing, re-packaging, and publishing of thousands of third-party installers without any manual effort involved. Quickly evaluate deployment options to leverage supported vendor installers effectively. Enhance quality by proactively identifying and addressing application issues before they reach deployment. Achieve consistency through a unified and repeatable process for building, customizing, and testing application delivery. Minimize operational risks that often arise from compatibility problems and application conflicts. Seamlessly integrate with your current package request workflows using a well-documented REST API or by utilizing our PowerShell cmdlets. Gain insights on where to concentrate your testing efforts by analyzing Java dependencies and identifying shared files among applications. Additionally, generate App Attach image files from MSIX packages to streamline the management of Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD), further simplifying the overall deployment process. With these advancements, your application deployment can become not only quicker but also more reliable and efficient.

Description

EtherApps Forge captures Windows applications on the machines they already run on, even when the installer is lost, and turns them into signed MSIX, MSI, Intune Win32 and App Attach packages. Package the apps holding up your move to Windows 365, Azure Virtual Desktop and Intune, including the ones nobody can reinstall. AI does the busywork. The Forge MCP server lets GitHub Copilot and other AI clients drive Forge in plain English, one real tool call at a time, and nothing ships until your team approves it. Forge AI Controller, in private preview, runs the packaging lifecycle as an agent in your own infrastructure, not shared SaaS. It can use local AI models, so prompts, packages and what it learns stay in your environment, or Microsoft Foundry in your own subscription, or OpenAI services. Forge Capture is a portable single file: copy it and run it, with nothing to install. It captures from Windows XP SP3 to Windows 11 and Windows Server 2008 R2 to 2025, including RDS session hosts. Convert App-V 5 packages to MSIX or MSI without resequencing, with no App-V client or sequencer. Sign, validate and smoke test each package, and edit a built MSIX without rebuilding it. Batch capture, the forge_msix command line and a PowerShell module fit your build pipeline. Forge runs on your own machines, so packages and signing keys stay with you. Packages go to Microsoft Intune (which also reaches Windows 365 Cloud PCs), Configuration Manager, Azure Virtual Desktop through App Attach, Citrix and Omnissa App Volumes. Start a 7-day free trial at etherapps.ai: 25 captures, no card. The full licence is £895 per named packaging admin per year, plus VAT. Also on Microsoft Marketplace.
