Where it fits
TinyTables sits in the middle of the stack: forms write to it, workflows act on it, agents read it, email sends from it.
Real flows
New row → auto-enrich → route by ICP fit → notify the right rep.
Paste a CSV → verify emails → find LinkedIns → score → export qualified.
Deal closed → onboarding row → agent nags right team until milestone done.
Topic added → agent drafts → reviewer agent → email to team for approval.

Three concrete things: built-in enrichment (Apollo/Clearbit per row), tight integration with forms / workflows / agents / email in the same product, and performance on large tables (500k+ rows comfortably).
Yes. Connect your account or import CSV/database snapshots. Tables, fields, relations come over. Formulas and rich-text need a manual pass; our team handles in your first week.
1,000 rows free forever, single user. Pro at $49/mo unlocks unlimited rows, team seats, and the bundle.
Every row has a button that calls our enrichment provider (Apollo, Clearbit-class data). Run on-demand or auto on every new row. Same job as a separate Clay or Apollo subscription, built in.
Comfortably handles 500k+ rows. Beyond that, we expose a Postgres export so you can move to a real warehouse.
