Start here. Find your first move.
StackPilot routes solo operators from problem → workflow → stack → first move, not through a software directory. Tell us where you are and this page sends you to one next step, not a pile of tabs. Three ways in; pick the one that sounds like you.
Where are you right now?
ONE FRONT DOOR
This router replaces the old scatter of Start Here pages. Jump to the route that matches your situation: each one hands you a concrete first action.
You know the result. Pick a lane.
01 · DIAGNOSE → COMPARE → ACT
You know the business result you want but not the stack to buy. Choose the lane that matches your problem: you'll get a short set of recommended next moves and best-fit / skip-if guidance, not a directory to dig through.
Build your first useful AI workflow
You have real work but no system yet.
Fix lead follow-up and pipeline leaks
Leads and follow-ups are slipping through the cracks.
Choose a smaller software stack
You keep buying and comparing tools.
Use AI safely in your occupation
You want role-specific workflows with the risky parts gated.
Build with agents, Claude Code, or Hermes
Ready to let AI run repeatable prep, with approval on risk.
Turn expertise into an offer and delivery system
You can do the work; you need it to sell and ship.
Starting from zero? Use the field manuals first.
02 · BEFORE YOU BUY SOFTWARE
If you're still choosing the buyer, offer, stack, agents, content, customers, and delivery, don't start with a tool: start with the manuals. These create local worksheets only: no checkout, outreach, or account setup.
Find the first manual
Not sure which guide to open first? Start from your stuck point and let the finder recommend the next manual and the first worksheet question. No personal data is collected: it just points you at the right starting move.
Work the starter pack
Move through buyer, offer, stack, agents, content, customers, and delivery as a sequence of short local worksheet sessions. One artifact at a time, in order, so you build the business instead of browsing for it.
See what "done" looks like
Read a fully worked field manual before writing your own version, so the output feels concrete: a real, numbered workflow with the risky steps gated, not a fake proof claim.
Already have a workflow that's leaking?
03 · PROVE BEFORE YOU AUTOMATE
If leads, quotes, or follow-ups are slipping and you just want it fixed, skip the lanes. Map the real workflow, score where it leaks, and get the one fix worth doing first: evidence before automation.
Run a Pipeline Health Audit
The audit separates the deterministic steps from the judgment steps, scores 10-20 recent cases, and delivers a 7-day plan with a single highest-value fix: keep manual, automate simply, or add AI with review.
