Open-source no-code database, app builder and automation platform
Build relational tables with rich field types, linked records and data imported straight from spreadsheets, CSV, XML or JSON.
Work in grid, gallery, kanban, calendar, timeline, form and survey views, each with its own filters, sorting and colors.
Compose custom internal apps, portals and pages on top of your database without writing front-end or back-end code.
Create workflow logic with triggers, branches, conditions and loops, then connect HTTP requests, email, webhooks and third-party tools.

Turn spreadsheets and prompts into AI-powered business apps
A proprietary engine that parses the sheets, formulas, lookups and notes your team already relies on, then translates that context into working software instead of a flat table.
Describe the problem in a prompt — or upload a PDF or screenshot — and the agent loads your data and assembles a responsive app for desktop and phone, with clickable numbers that explain how they were calculated.
Connect Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT or another MCP-compatible assistant and let it build into the same apps, data and permissions as Glide's native agent, with approved-model allowlists.
Data Apps, Chats, Workflows, Integrations and Attachments sit on one record set, so a single status change propagates across every connected app, dashboard and conversation.
