About Softr

Softr lets teams build portals, internal tools and simple business apps by combining pre-built blocks such as lists, tables, forms, charts and user profiles, connected to data in Airtable, Google Sheets, SQL databases, HubSpot or Softr's own database. User logins and permissions are built in, so a common use is a client portal where each customer sees only their own records. An AI assistant can generate a starting app from a prompt, and the platform has added workflows, forms and AI agents. It suits small and mid-sized businesses that want something working in an afternoon without a developer. There is a free plan with limits on users and records; paid monthly plans add custom domains, more app users, branding removal and advanced permissions. It runs in the browser, with apps usable on mobile as progressive web apps.

Best for: Small businesses building client portals or internal tools on Airtable or Sheets data.
