What does STAQS.IO do?

STAQS.IO is an agentic engineering studio that ships production AI systems in weeks. We build custom apps, automation, and AI agents for regulated industries, commerce, and customer service, staffed entirely by senior engineers.

How much do STAQS.IO engagements cost?

Engagements start at $10,000. Custom builds are scoped individually based on complexity and timeline.

Who founded STAQS.IO?

STAQS.IO was founded by Eric Gang, a 20-year engineering and product veteran. He previously served as CTO of Lab Society, which generated over $70M in revenue before being acquired by Agrify Corp (NASDAQ: AGFY), and as SVP of IT at Agrify. The core team that shipped together through that journey is largely intact at STAQS.IO today.

What is agentic engineering?

Agentic engineering is the practice of building autonomous AI agent systems that operate in production environments. Unlike traditional software, agentic systems can plan, execute, and adapt independently within governed boundaries. STAQS.IO specializes in building these systems for regulated industries.

Does STAQS.IO offer a free demo?

Yes. Visit staqs.io/demo to submit any website URL. Our AI agents will scrape, analyze, and generate a complete redesign of your homepage in minutes — for free. It's a live demonstration of our agentic engineering capabilities.

What industries does STAQS.IO work with?

STAQS.IO works across regulated industries (cannabis compliance, healthcare), commerce (Shopify, e-commerce platforms), and customer service automation. We specialize in domains where AI agents must operate within strict compliance and governance boundaries.
