Hi there 👋 We're Stotles.

Our mission is to unlock the potential of business and government working better, together. We'd love for you to join us on our journey.

The partnership between business and government is vital in making our communities productive & cohesive, but inefficiency and bureaucracy is currently the norm. We are using a modern approach to change this.

Our SaaS platform gives businesses a clear view of opportunities to work with the public sector, and the tools needed to manage them. We are bringing together a massive amount of messy government data to bring clarity and transparency to a space that desperately needs it.

We've seen fantastic traction from industry leading customers such as Salesforce, Vodafone, Microsoft and Civica and our growth trajectory is on the rise 🚀
