Direct SaaS proof · PromptForge by Emerald Sites

A live product, not a capability slide.

PromptForge turns rough requests into structured prompts for tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Lovable. The live product brings together guided input, prompt diagnosis, file context, safety signals, accounts and credit-based plans in one clear workflow.

It proves the part a portfolio of brochure sites cannot: product thinking, application UX and working software.

Selected enterprise product experience

Product experience where evidence and accountability matter.

The Emerald Sites team brings substantial experience and involvement in demanding enterprise product environments, including work connected with AIRAS Cloud—an operational AI governance platform built and operated by AFRH Consulting Limited.

The relevant experience spans controlled workflow, evidence, auditability, role-aware and tenant-scoped design, human review and regulated-product delivery. It is evidence that the team can work beyond brochure websites without overstating product ownership.

AIRAS Cloud is owned and operated by AFRH Consulting Limited. Emerald Sites does not claim ownership or sole authorship of the platform.

How we build

Clear decisions. Good work. No disappearing act.

The scale changes. The discipline does not. A €499 launch and a full software platform both need a clear brief, honest scope and a tested release.

  1. Discover

    Understand the business, users, constraints and evidence.

  2. Define

    Agree scope, journeys, requirements and acceptance criteria.

  3. Design

    Shape the brand, information, interface and interaction.

  4. Engineer

    Build the front end, logic, integrations and content system.

  5. Verify

    Test function, content, accessibility, security and responsive behaviour.

  6. Release

    Migrate, monitor and hand over with a rollback path.

  7. Improve

    Use real behaviour and feedback to make the next decision.

Founder-led in Ireland

The people in the conversation are the people responsible for the work.

Emerald Sites is led by Amy and Richard Higgins. The studio combines direct, human client service with hands-on design, product and delivery experience. You do not disappear into an account queue, and the technical part is never hidden behind agency theatre.

The business began by helping Irish small businesses get online properly. It now carries that same clarity into premium websites, SaaS products and complex digital delivery.

A website, a workflow, a product—or just a problem that needs a better digital answer. Start with what the business needs to do. We will work out what should be built.
