Noloco builds client portals and internal apps from Airtable, Google Sheets, Postgres or its own tables, with an AI builder called Nola. The free plan caps you at 2,000 records and 50 clients, and Salesforce and API connections are Enterprise only. - **Value for money: C.** Build is $65 a month billed annually ($79 monthly) with 10 seats, which is $13 each for a team of ten, about the middle of spreadsheet tools. Extra seats and records cost more. - **Free plan and trial: B.** Free has unlimited team seats, 2,000 records, 50 active clients and 30 AI credits a month, and a 14-day trial of Build needs no card. A small portal could live there. - **Features: C.** Portals, internal apps, workflows, action buttons, mobile apps and many data sources. Salesforce and API sources are Enterprise only and Google Sheets is import-only on Free, which are gaps. - **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. It is a web app where you build the portal yourself, so there is a learning curve. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web with mobile apps, plus links to Airtable, Google Sheets, Xano, Stripe, Postgres, Supabase and HubSpot, and an API.

That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It costs $780 a year. - You could make: Forms: an app builder makes this well. - You could not: A builder that other people can use without writing code. - You could not: A tool that builds and hosts other apps. - You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. - You could not: Databases with views, filters and links between them. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself. - You could not: What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: roles and permissions.
