Rippling alternative

A database with enrichment, workflows, and AI bundled in.

Rippling is an all-in-one HR + payroll + IT platform — strong for full-stack employee management. For teams that just need the operational data layer (employee tracking, onboarding workflows, request forms), TinyTables covers it at $49/mo without the payroll + IT scope.

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 (Apollo/Clearbit per row), tight integration with forms / workflows / agents / email in the same product, and performance on large tables (500k+ rows comfortably).

Can I import my existing data?

+

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.

What's in the free tier?

+

1,000 rows free forever, single user. Pro at $49/mo unlocks unlimited rows, team seats, and the bundle.

How does the built-in enrichment work?

+

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.

Performance with large tables?

+

Comfortably handles 500k+ rows. Beyond that, we expose a Postgres export so you can move to a real warehouse.
