A spreadsheet that thinks it's a database — column types (attached file, single select, linked record), formula fields, views (Kanban, Calendar, Gallery).
Founder Howie Liu came from Salesforce. The default choice for "lightweight CRM", project trackers, content calendars, asset databases. Competition: NocoDB (open source), Baserow (open source), Smartsheet (more enterprise), Coda. Pivoted toward AI / agent-builder in 2024 — lost some indie-developer fans over price hikes and feature cuts.
