Get data from Google Sheets or Airtable on your website - idea validation
Hey, I'm currently building EmbedTables.com and want to know your opinion on that, gather some feedback.
Pitch
EmbedTable - tool allowing you beautifully embed data from Google Sheets or Airtable in your website using pre-designed templates in 5 minutes.
Use cases
- Curated lists
- Job boards
- Testimonials
- Employees list
- Events/webinars list
- Any type of tabularized data
Why it's different than similar tools
- It's integrated with G sheets and Airtable, so you can embed data from different sources on the same website
- Script you attach to the website is very lightweight
- Many beautiful pre-designed templates
- Possibility to write your own custom CSS
ps. If you like the idea and want to try it soon you can sign in to the waiting list on embedtables.com

I love this idea - please keep going.
There's a huge hidden niche for tools that use G Sheets and Airtable
Thank you for the kind words!
Yes and yes. I had to hire a dev before to do Google Sheets -> Squarespace and I know that they changed their API a few months ago and everything broke.
What does pricing look like? (Just curious!)
I'm starting with $7/mo for up to 3 connected sheets (airtable or g sheets)
That's fair. I would need (as a user) the ability to fully customize CSS (I know you mentioned this as a maybe) to justify that price.
Thank you for that feedback! I'll put emphasis on that feature
Would it be similar to Sheet2Site? Maybe your tool would target developers rather than a general audience, which is good.
I am working on something which uses Google sheets to create tables as well. I am starting to think that my main mistake was to target a too general audience rather than a specific niche.
https://siteoly.com is good alternative for sheet2site
I like the idea too—are you thinking of it as glideapps but for web?
Thank you! Yeah, kind of! But MVP assumes you don't create a whole website using Sheets, but embed data on your existing one.
