Knack alternative

AI per record, and the rest of the stack Knack leaves to you.

Knack is one of the original no-code database app builders (since 2010): define your data model, add user authentication with role-based access, and deploy a web app where customers log in and see only their data. Tiny Command has client portals too: TinyPortal puts a login over your TinyTables rows, so each customer sees only theirs. Both start at $19/mo, and at that price Knack gives you a database plus app builder, while Tiny Command gives you a database plus forms, workflows, email, and portals, with AI columns integrated per record.

Why teams switch

Three things Knack structurally can’t do.

AI columns that generate, classify, and enrich content per row; Knack has no AI columns, content generation, or agents

Built into the same product. No separate subscription, no glue code.

TinyTables connects natively to TinyForms, TinyWorkflows, TinyEmails, and TinyAgents

tables, forms, workflows and email all come on the $19/mo Basic plan, the price Knack charges for one app

Six views (grid, kanban, calendar, gallery, Gantt and form), plus per-record data enrichment

Built into the same product. No separate subscription, no glue code.

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.
