About Starkby
A new company, built around one job.
A missed call is a customer who called someone else. Starkby exists to make sure that doesn't happen, after hours, when your team is busy, or when the phone rings twice at once. Not by replacing the people who answer your phone today, but by covering the calls they can't get to.
Meet the founder
Axel Alwan
I've spent two decades building software, including LLM and automation work at Verily (a Google company). Starkby brings those same tools to local businesses, minus the enterprise price tag and the enterprise sales process.
I design and tune every receptionist personally. When something needs a human, you get me, not a support ticket.

How we build Starkby
Concrete over clever
We say “books the appointment,” not “orchestrates scheduling.” If a sentence needs a glossary, we rewrite it.
Outcome before technology
You should never have to care how the model works. You should be able to tell whether the call went well.
Honest limits
If Starkby doesn't know something, it takes a message or hands off to a person. It doesn't guess and it doesn't pretend.
Your rules, not a black box
What Starkby can answer, book, and transfer is something you configure and approve, not something baked in behind the scenes.
Built by the team behind StarkByDesign
Before Starkby, this team designed and built automation and custom systems for other businesses under StarkByDesign. Starkby is the focused, purpose-built product that came out of that work: one job, done well, instead of a general-purpose automation shop. If what you need is broader than phone coverage, StarkByDesign is a separate site and a separate conversation.
