Free STACK: what the entry tier covers

A solid web platform, built for the North American market. The free tier is for evaluating, not for producing.

Is it actually free?

STACK long promoted a no-cost entry tier, capped in project count and features, alongside a trial of the full offers. Real billing is per seat per year, in dollars. It is a good product, but the pricing and the language target the United States and Canada, and support follows the same time zones.

What is genuinely free

  • The no-cost entry tier, capped in concurrent projects, enough to test the method.
  • The trial of the higher offers, to see the exports and multi-user work.
  • The online training, open to all, useful even if you pick another tool.

Where it stops

The free tier fills up fast: a few projects, no serious export, no multi-user work. And for a European firm, dollar billing, an English-only interface and the support time difference weigh as much as the price.

What FloorScan opens up for free

FloorScan bills monthly, in the country's currency, with an interface in eight languages and automatic room detection before any manual input. Thirty free days across every module, then a manual takeoff that stays open.

Free and immediate, no account: the matching calculator.

Frequently asked questions

Does STACK's free tier allow exporting?

Full exports come with the paid tiers. Test that point first: a takeoff that cannot leave the tool is useless in a quote.

Does STACK suit a European firm?

Technically yes, it runs in a browser. In practice, English, the dollar and North American estimating habits add a daily friction worth measuring before you sign.

Is there an equivalent that speaks my language?

FloorScan is available in eight languages, with per-market pricing and monthly billing without an annual commitment.
