About Airtable
Overview
Airtable is a next-generation app-building platform that connects data, workflows, and teams in a single workspace. It enables organizations to build custom business apps, automate repetitive tasks, and embed AI throughout end-to-end workflows without writing code.
Over 500,000 brands use Airtable to unify their tools and data. Unlike traditional databases or project management tools, Airtable combines relational databases with no-code app building, AI agents, and automation in one platform.
Key Benefits
- Build custom business apps at prototype speed using conversational AI and no-code components.
- Deploy AI agents that think dynamically across thousands of records and orchestrate workflows.
- Automate repetitive tasks and manual work, achieving more in less time with automations.
- Collaborate with guest users outside your organization using Portals.
- Scale apps on top of massive data sets with support for up to 100 million records on Enterprise Scale plans.
- Integrate with tools like Slack, Google Drive, Salesforce, Jira, and Zendesk.
How It Works
You start by creating a base — a relational database that connects your data from apps, workflows, and tools. You then build custom interfaces and views from your data, set up automations to run repetitive tasks, and embed AI agents that act across records. Finally, you share your app with team members and guest users via Portals.
Use Cases

- Marketing teams — plan campaigns and scale impact with unified marketing workflows.
