Stacker
Stacker operates a content distribution platform that turns public data into data-driven stories and places them across a network of 3,000+ publishers and news outlets.
Stacker builds a content distribution platform for earned reach, enabling brands to place vetted, data-driven stories across a trusted network of more than 3,000 news outlets and publishers. The company transforms public data into accessible editorial coverage that publishers choose to run; this model produces over 60,000 story pickups each month. Founded in 2017, Stacker operates remote-first, with flexible schedules, unlimited vacation and significant autonomy afforded to its staff.
The engineering work spans several domains: content distribution infrastructure, data-driven journalism, the transformation and analysis of public datasets, and publishing and news media technology connecting brands with publishers. The product stack supports both story creation and large-scale syndication, carrying content from raw public data through to placement across a network of thousands of news outlets.
Stacker is bootstrapped and run with a resourceful, ROI-oriented outlook, describing itself as a team of innovators and storytellers. Stated values include ownership, integrity and collaboration, alongside a focus on long-term impact over short-term gains and a stated commitment to its publisher partners.
