AITable alternative

per-row AI, and the rest of the stack AITable leaves to you.

AITable (formerly APITable) is an open-source Airtable clone with two additions: self-hosting on your own infrastructure, and an AI chatbot that answers questions from your table data. It replicates the Airtable experience well and is a real option for teams with data-sovereignty needs. TinyTables works differently: its AI columns run automatically on every new record to classify, score, and enrich, rather than waiting for a chat query, and the database is natively wired to forms, workflows, email, and AI agents.

Where it fits

A database is only as useful as what flows in and out.

TinyTables sits in the middle of the stack: forms write to it, workflows act on it, agents read it, email sends from it.

FAQ

Questions worth asking before you switch.

How is TinyTables different?

+

Three concrete things: built-in enrichment (company, person and email look-ups per row), tight integration with forms / workflows / agents / email in the same product, and a real database under the grid, with linked tables, rollups and six views of the same records: Grid, Kanban, Calendar, Gallery, Gantt and Form.

Can I import my existing data?

+

Import a CSV or Excel file into TinyTables. There is no one-click importer that connects to another tool's account, so export your data first, or have our team rebuild your setup for you. Live within a week.

What's in the free tier?

+

1,000 credits a month, free forever, for one seat. Building tables never costs a credit; credits pay for automated work like workflow steps, look-ups and AI agents. Basic ($19/mo) and Professional ($49/mo) add credits and team seats.

How does the built-in enrichment work?

+

An enrichment column looks up each row, on demand or on every new row, and writes the result back. Look up a company for 10 credits, a person for 20, find an email for 10, verify an email for 5. No match, no charge. Same everyday job as a separate Clay or Apollo subscription, built in.

Is it a real database?

+

Yes. TinyTables is a real database under the grid, with linked tables and rollups, and you can switch the same records between grid, kanban, calendar, gallery, Gantt and form views.
