Pickaxe vs. Stack AI
Turn your AI workflow into a product clients can buy.
Stack AI helps operations teams build and govern internal workflows. Pickaxe gives an agency a branded place to deliver an agent, invite clients and sell access.

Which fits your project?
| Decision | Stack AI | |
|---|---|---|
| Who it serves | IT and operations teams deploying governed enterprise agents. | Experts and agencies delivering their expertise as a product to clients. |
| How you build | Connect internal systems and orchestrate multi-step work in a visual builder. | Combine instructions, knowledge and actions in an agent you can test and publish. |
| Example project | An internal research workflow that reads company documents and drafts a memo. | A proposal reviewer sold by subscription |
| Test before committing | Test how operators review a draft and control the sources it can use. | Sign into a test portal as a client. Check access, the agent experience and checkout. |
