Our take

Stacker's founders observed that companies used to invest more than 6 months of time and a significant amount of money in launching a simple app. They believe that in the digital age building software shouldn't be a difficult task anymore, so they've launched Stacker in order to democratise access to software development.

The company differentiates itself through allowing everyone to create their own apps, irrespective of their coding skills. Stacker aims to not only create a product that is intuitive and user-friendly, but also to offer beautiful templates that are customisable for their users needs.

The company is backed by Y Combinator, Andreessen Horowitz and Initialized Capital. Moving forwards, they are focused on the ongoing expansion of their platform and product.
