"We’re a really early company just trying to move fast and test things," said Mike Austin, CPO at Spedal. Without Stacker we wouldn’t have been able to find and build a niche in the reverse logistics space for companies seeking to provide zero-waste products.
‘We don’t want to be spending ages building something with real code and spending money we don’t have yet.’
Spedal stores its data in Airtable, which acts as the backend for its two Stacker apps: a customer portal and a riders app.
"Stacker has meant we’ve been able to prove there’s a need here. Stacker means that we actually have a product, at the end of the day"

‘Before we used Stacker, we just used Google Sheets. Customers added orders and then we texted riders with the name and address of the order. Now, riders can manage their whole shift – including marking the start and end of jobs – within the app, and customers can track orders and see if an item has been delivered in the portal.’
‘There’s absolutely no way that we’d be running at the scale we’re at now without Stacker.’
‘We’re now in the process of raising money and Stacker has meant we’ve been able to prove there’s a need here. Stacker means that we actually have a product, at the end of the day.’
