Clap de fin for Stackadoc as an independent company — and the start of a new chapter. We are joining the eXalt group. From now on we continue from the offices on rue Vauvilliers, doing exactly what we have always done: Data Science and AI engagements that help our clients take hold of these technologies.
How it started
It began over a lunch with François-Xavier Laine, where we presented the company: our track record deploying AI solutions for clients, and our convictions — that AI is driving the cost of interfaces towards zero, that data and action governance has to sit at the centre of the thinking, and that AI consulting should be delivered by versatile people.
Meeting the group's other founders — Eudes Fontenoy, François-Xavier Malcorpi, Julien Guisset, Céline Jacquot (Mazille) and Edwin Thibierge — and learning their entrepreneurial story (growth champions according to Les Echos) made it clear that the whole Stackadoc team could grow much faster inside that ecosystem.
What Stackadoc brings
Stackadoc is an AI agency working with players in luxury, retail and tech on ambitious Data & AI projects. It is also a curious, demanding team with a genuine appetite for concrete uses of artificial intelligence, and strong expertise in Data, Machine Learning and the deployment of bespoke AI solutions.
The team joins the collective, and more specifically the AI Studio at eXalt Value, led by Melina Loustau — with a single ambition: supporting clients on consulting and on the deployment of AI-related technology solutions. A new step, the same DNA: Pulse. Make. Learn.
Six years we are proud of
Starting from almost nothing, we built a complete, complementary and tight-knit Data & AI team. We worked for CAC 40 companies for several years on strategic services — no fundraising, no constraints, just a focus on our clients.
And we managed to mix intense work with genuinely good human moments: the birthdays, the offsites, the video games between noon and 2pm. Remote work, but always together on Slack at 9:30 every morning.
