Built for Creators, By Creators
STAKD is the first and only product on the market designed to meet the pain points small to mid-sized content creators face. What began as a search for an all-in-one solution to expense & income tracking, brand contact management, and contract & deliverable tracking, resulted in a moment of discouragement for our founder (Steve from Crossthread Garage & Salvage) when he realized he was going to have to continue paying hundreds of dollars a year for a patchwork of apps, all sandboxed from each other, that didn't really do exactly what he wanted.
Then came a moment of inspiration derived right from the core of Steve's work with his daughter K8lynn in the garage: "If somebody else can do it, there's no reason you can't learn." Steve set to work learning his way through app development and coding, while surveying other creators who expressed the same interest in an all-in-one app specifically designed for creators.
In 2024, the Creator Economy was over $100 billion, and is expected to quadruple in the next few years. Successful creators won't be those who do well on camera, it will be those who can do well on camera...and great off camera.
STAKD is designed to help you succeed by managing all the business side demands that your fans and audience will never understand, but we do.
Steve is a content creator, automotive enthusiast, and the host of Crossthread Garage & Salvage on YouTube. As a creator himself, Steve understands firsthand the challenges of managing a creator business—from tracking brand partnerships to staying organized for tax season.
Steve spent months building STAKD from the ground up, driven by the belief that creators deserve better tools to manage their businesses. What started as a personal solution has evolved into a comprehensive platform designed to help creators like you focus on what you do best: creating.
Built by a creator who gets it. Designed for creators who need it.
