Every enterprise faces the same integration nightmare: AI agents that can't take real action, SaaS platforms stuck in months of custom integration work, and security teams blocking every new connection. StackOne exists to end this bottleneck - providing a universal integration layer that empowers AI agents and B2B SaaS platforms to connect with 3,000+ enterprise systems through a single, secure API.

Our Falcon execution engine powers production-ready autonomous agents with 200+ connectors and 25,000 pre-mapped actions.

We're a healthcare company that started with a simple idea: what if you could see a doctor without leaving your home? When our founder Johannes couldn't get an appointment for his own health issue, he realized the system was broken - long wait times, busy phone lines, confusing websites. So we built Kry to fix that. Today we're Europe's leading digital healthcare provider, operating across Sweden, Norway, Germany, France and the UK (where we're called Livi). We've facilitated over 10 million patient consultations and have 34+ physical healthcare centers complementing our digital services. Our team of 3,000+ clinicians and specialists works alongside our tech and operations people to make healthcare actually work - whether that's a video call at midnight or a same-day appointment at one of our clinics.
