Anyone here use Airtable for their business?
Hey Hackers,
I'm in the process of designing user management for Pory.io and would love to learn more about how you would use this for your business.
For example, would having an interface built on top of Airtable make sense for your use case and if so what would you use it for? E.g. putting content behind a pay wall, internal tools etc.
Really appreciate your time! Happy to also give 50% off our plans to anyone from this community, just DM me 🙏

I use both Airtable and Google Sheets. One of the cool features would be to build a reporting dashboard built on top of Airtable and also an admin panel.
I completely agree. I’ve yet to find a solid no-code dashboard builder that isn’t enterprise focused or overly complex.
Me too, please while we're searching, whoever finds should please share lol.
Looks like Softr could be have a solution in the works. https://www.softr.io/web-apps
interesting! I think reporting functionality could definitely be an amazing feature to start thinking about next :)
Nice, checked out pory.io today after hearing about it from a friend, shooting you a DM, would love to try out the platform or even pay for it.
Thank you!!! sorry for the late reply! I missed your message. Let me know if you need help with anything :)
This sounds like something I shared with you on your website live chat.
Hey! Happy to talk more in-depth if it makes sense, but I run my business on airtable for:
I definitely want to take it further, now that I understand Airtable as a database (as opposed to just task tracking / kanban, which is how I was using Trello previously).
Not to give too much away, but I'd love to use Airtable as the database foundation for a paid / paywalled app that would help me take how I use it for my business and put that out to the world (with some additional planning, of course)
You should check out Tadabase. I did exactly this with my operations and fell in love with no-code since.
Oh my it looks pretty - thanks for the recommendation!!

It's very powerful but has a slight learning curve. There some great videos on youtube that helped me a lot.
Thanks for sharing! Would love to reach out to learn more once we have user management and the ability to set up member only/paywalls :)
I'm building https://www.imminews.live/ and am looking forward to the paywall so that I can charge to send custom email notifications. I used the Discovery template as it's the closest thing to a news feed, but I would like to modify the template for my needs. In your roadmap you have custom fields shipped, but I'm just not able to figure out how I can modify the mapped fields yet without breaking the template haha.
Hi BlakeWS, i'll DM you to understand more :)
Hey @shooting_unicorns
Yes - I use Airtable in my daytime role. For example, a dynamic CRM and an event project management tool.
Keen to see new features from Pory!
