Hey all, my name is Herman and I'm the maker of StackPile (thanks @kwdinc for hunting!). I started building StackPile a couple of months ago when I needed a quick and simple solution to try 3rd party apps in a few sites I was building at the time. Up until then I was using Segment (which is awesome btw), but for some of the sites the high traffic would mean the bill could be huge. Also, some of the requirements meant that a solution like Google Tag Manager might not be the best. For example, I wanted to have an easy way of hot swapping analytics tools without having to implement each API (like Segment allows). For this I added a Unified Analytics API to StackPile that allows you to implement methods like track and identify once and be done with it. StackPile also gave me an opportunity to experiment with rendering javascript via Laravel's Blade templating engine (works like a charm btw.). I've been using it personally for the past month on a couple of sites, including one high traffic site without any issues. Would love to hear what you guys think about StackPile, looking forward to your questions and suggestions. There is also a special offer for Product Hunters who sign up before end of April 2016. Cheers! Edit: Thanks for all the awesome suggestions, both here and offline. I've just added a site checker so you can easily see if your installed apps are supported currently: https://stackpile.io/detect Some examples: https://stackpile.io/detect?url=... https://stackpile.io/detect?url=... https://stackpile.io/detect?url=...

@hermanschutte Thanks for the Segment love ! It's amazing to see other enter this market and make tracking and tool integration a better experience

Whoever made this - I've spotted a typo "Choose a plan to suite your business". This should be "Choose a plan to suit your business". Other than that, it's a great idea and I can't wait to try it out.

@grooveplex thanks for spotting! Just fixed that.

@hermanschutte great! Glad I could help. I really love the logo

@grooveplex thanks! Graphic design is not my forte, but was pretty impressed with myself :)

Can you tell me how is this different from Google Tag Manager?
Herman Schutte
@amvlad Hi Alin! There are definitely a lot of similarities between StackPile and Google Tag Manager, but some of the key differences are the ability for StackPile to update your installed apps to the latest versions (if you choose), the amount of out-of-the-box apps we currently support as well as the Unified Analytics API that allows you to send tracking events and identify your users in multiple apps (Heap, Mixpanel, GA, Kissmetrics, etc.) without having to implement each API separately.

I personally think that an open source version should exist for those who wanna run it on their own master servers so the request is faster
Herman Schutte
@noxowe Cool idea. Also could maybe look at creating a white label version that can be self hosted.

I wonder who the target market for this is. Non-tech-savvy bloggers maybe? For developers it certainly isn't that big of a pain to paste some code into the footer of your site.

@imns81 Pretty much a tag manager with app store. Very similar to the enterprise TMS Ensighten that has an app store to do this as well
Herman Schutte
@imns81 Hi Nate, yes that is definitely a portion of the target audience. But one of the benefits (for me at least) is being able to add / remove apps without having to redeploy an app. I know most of us working on newer apps probably have a solid build & test process allowing continuous deployment which would make adding a quick snippet no big deal, but I've worked on enough older apps where deployment is no easy process. Even adding a small script to test a new analytics product would require a nightly or even weekly scheduled deploy. Also, with the Unified Analytics API you can setup the tracking and identify calls once and not have to update it for any apps you install.

@hermanschutte cool. I definitely get the legacy app thing. I spend too much time working on code that I can't roll till after 9:00pm :D. Looks like a nice service overall and I really like your landing page design. Wish you luck!

Great idea. I like it.
Herman Schutte
@ozgrozer thanks! Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions.

Definitely solving a pain, just not sure it's a 10 bucks a month pain...
Herman Schutte
@kachchani Hi Yassine! Thanks for the feedback. Any features you think would make it worth it for you?
