About

Hi, I'm Long.

Long Nguyen, founder of SpoilStack
Long. Upstate NY.

I build SpoilStack from upstate NY. One person, not a company pretending to be one.

I started it after talking to excavation contractors and hearing the same thing over and over: job tracking is either a beat-up spreadsheet, a whiteboard in the shop, or a $300/month platform built for GCs that nobody on the crew will actually use.

I watched a contractor track six machines across four sites on a whiteboard with magnets. When a magnet fell off, nobody knew where the 330 was. That's the problem. Small excavation outfits deserve something built for how their work actually runs. Not a dumbed-down version of Procore. Not a field service app designed for HVAC techs.

I believe people deserve nice things. Tools that feel good to use, get out of your way, and work the way a dirt crew actually works. Not a training course. Not a forty-dollar-a-seat tax. Just something that helps you stop losing track of jobs and machines.

SpoilStack is my long-term project. I'm not flipping it, not chasing a round, not bolting on invoicing or estimating or payroll. The job is to make the simplest tool a small excavation shop can actually use, and keep it that way.

I answer my own support emails. If something is broken or missing, tell me and it gets on the list that day.
