Airtable is a platform that makes it easy to build powerful, custom applications. These tools can streamline just about any process, workflow, or project—and best of all, you can build them without ever learning to write a single line of code.

Big fan of Airtable. We use it at Weekend Fund to manage our CRM of founders, LPs, etc. and pipeline of companies we're speaking with. There are purpose-built CRMs for similar use cases but I like that Airtable is generalized and flexible to adapt to our needs. It also has several integrations that trigger automations (via Zapier) for various workflows.

This is the most revolutionary app I've used for my elementary school's data management. Easy to use and incredibly powerful and flexible. The learning curve is minimal for the non-engineers in my team. They're used to Excel and Sheets so they don't have to learn a whole new UI to see and search data. The devs in the team have access to the API so we've been able to integrate it seamlessly into our Customer Portals so that the backend is basically a collection of Google Sheets while the front end is a full-featured Web App. What a revolution this has been!

Create spreadsheets as powerful as apps. Spreadsheet.com is the spreadsheet you know with the power of a database, built-in project management, no-code automations, integrations, and real-time updates.

Really like how they are mixing spreadsheets with relational database aspects and now having OpenAI capabilities.
