StackOS is a methodology for consolidating a typical small-operator SaaS stack ($500–$3,000/month across CRM, automation, forms, reporting, knowledge base, scheduling, and email) into approximately $75/month of owned, composable infrastructure.
The framework is free. Implementation comes in three tiers: a $29 self-serve PDF kit, a $2K–$3.5K live build session, or installation as part of a multi-month fractional COO engagement.
Audit, Architect, Build, Own.
- Audit, map the current SaaS spend line by line; produce a delta against the StackOS pattern.
- Architect, design the replacement: five accounts (edge compute, database, productivity, AI, payments).
- Build, set up accounts, wire components, migrate the highest-leverage workflows first.
- Own, your data, your accounts, your code. No vendor can lock you in or raise prices on you.
The typical SaaS stack.
StackOS replaces CRM (HubSpot/Salesforce), automation tooling (Zapier-class), form builders (Typeform), reporting tools (Looker/Mode), email automation (Mailchimp), and scheduling, collectively the $500–$3,000/month layer most small operators run without realizing the per-seat costs compound as the team grows.
Built on the floor, not in a classroom.
StackOS was built and stress-tested inside DefaultFail, the operator community where every component was proven by real business owners running real businesses before it became a consulting product. Obsidian Axis Group itself runs on StackOS, $74/month, today.
