baserow/baserow

Build databases, automations, apps & agents with AI — no code. Open source platform available on cloud and self-hosted. GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2 compliant. Best Airtable alternative.

What it solves

Baserow provides a secure, open-source, no-code platform for managing databases, building internal applications, and automating workflows. It serves as a flexible alternative to proprietary tools like Airtable, allowing teams to maintain full data ownership and control while scaling their operations.

How it works

Baserow functions as a spreadsheet-database hybrid that uses PostgreSQL as its backend. It includes an AI assistant named Kuma, which allows users to generate databases and define workflows using natural language. The platform is API-first and headless, meaning it can be integrated into existing technical stacks or used to build custom portals and dashboards that are hosted on your own domain.

Who it’s for

It is designed for teams and developers who need a scalable, enterprise-grade database solution that complies with security standards like GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2. It is ideal for those who want the ease of a spreadsheet interface combined with the power of a relational database and AI-driven automation.

  • Enterprise-ready security with GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2 Type II compliance
