Airtable

Relational bases

Data lives in bases of linked tables. Record limits per base rise from 1,000 on Free to 50,000 on Team and 125,000 on Business.

Eight view types

A table can be shown as a grid, form, calendar, gallery, kanban, timeline, list or Gantt view. Timeline and Gantt views need the Team plan.

Interfaces

Custom interfaces can be built from base data, giving each team a tailored app on top of the same records.

Automations and sync

Automations handle repetitive steps inside a base. Two-way sync with outside tools is included from the Business plan.

Omni and field agents

Omni builds apps from a plain-language description and field agents run AI across records. Both draw on monthly AI credits: 500 per editor on Free and 15,000 per seat on Team.

Portals

Portals let guest users from outside the organization collaborate on selected data.

Fibery

Connected databases

A workspace is built from databases that can be related to one another, including across Spaces, with formulas and lookup fields. The Free plan allows 10 databases with unlimited entities.

Many views of the same data

Data can be shown as a table, board, list, calendar, timeline, Gantt chart, gallery, map, feed or form. Gantt views are marked private only on the Free and Standard plans.

Documents and whiteboards

Collaborative documents are part of every plan. Whiteboards are private only on Free and can be shared from the Standard plan.

Automations

Buttons and rules run actions without code, including external ones such as sending a Slack message. Runs are metered monthly below Enterprise, and JavaScript actions need Pro.

Fibery AI

Paid plans include monthly AI credits per seat for answering questions, working with data and configuring the workspace, plus audio and video transcription. A remote MCP server is on every plan.

Synced integrations

Data from tools such as Jira, Zendesk and GitHub syncs continuously into Fibery databases. Free allows 1 integration, and two-way sync with Jira is on Pro and Enterprise.
