Who founded AutoStack?

AutoStack was founded in 2025 by four co-founders: Riya (CEO), Bhav (CTO), Trace (COO), and Ananya (CDO). Together they built a digital staffing agency that provides AI employees to understaffed businesses across the United States and Canada. Each AI employee costs $500 per month with no contracts. AutoStack's AI workforce advisor, Otto, diagnoses businesses and recommends a personalised team of 1 to 10 AI employees in under 3 minutes.

Why we started AutoStack

We kept seeing the same story. A business owner working 60-hour weeks. A team stretched so thin that leads slip, customers churn, and growth stalls — not because the business isn't good, but because there aren't enough people to run it.

Hiring is expensive, slow, and uncertain. Outsourcing is unreliable. AI tools are fragmented and require constant oversight. None of these solve the core problem: businesses need more hands, not more software.

So we built AutoStack — a digital staffing agency. AI employees that own entire business functions, work as a coordinated team, and cost $500/mo each. Otto, our AI concierge, builds your team in under 5 minutes. That's the future we're building.
