Softline

Overview

Softline turns the quoting, sourcing, and purchase order process at mid-market manufacturers from a stack of email threads into a structured, auditable workflow.

Softline is exactly the kind of company the program exists for: an unfashionable market, real budgets, and two founders from inside the industry who had never raised money or run a software company before.

What Stackpass unlocked

• 01

  A full stack for two non-technical founders

  Cloud, database, and application tooling credits let them hire engineers instead of spending their first raise on infrastructure.

• 02

  Learning to sell software, not parts

  Go-to-market mentors translated a decade of manufacturing operations experience into a repeatable enterprise sales motion.

• 03

  Playbooks instead of guesswork

  Hiring, pricing, and fundraising templates from the resources library replaced advice they had no network to ask for.
