Can the custom app feel like Airtable?

Yes. We build grid views with inline editing, filtering, sorting, and grouping that feel familiar to Airtable users while adding custom features.

How do you migrate the data?

We export Airtable data via the API, transform it to match the new schema, import into PostgreSQL, and validate record counts and relationships.

Yes. We can build a hybrid where the custom app handles high-volume data while Airtable remains for ad-hoc project tracking with two-way sync.

Replace Airtable's row limits and per-seat pricing with a custom application built around your exact workflow and data model.

Migration: Airtable to Custom

From Airtable to Custom Web Application

No Row Limits: Airtable caps at 100K rows per table. A custom application on PostgreSQL handles millions of records without performance degradation.
Lower Cost at Scale: Airtable's per-seat pricing adds up fast. A custom app costs the same whether you have 10 or 1,000 users.
Custom Logic: Build complex business rules, conditional workflows, and integrations that exceed Airtable's formula and automation capabilities.

Data Model Design (1–2 weeks): Analyze Airtable bases, tables, views, and automations. Design a relational database schema optimized for your workflows.
- Airtable usage analysis
- PostgreSQL schema design
- Feature parity checklist
Application Build (4–8 weeks): Build the custom application with all views, forms, and automations from Airtable, plus new capabilities.
- Custom web application
- Data migration scripts
- Automation replacements
Data Migration & Cutover (1–2 weeks): Migrate all data from Airtable, validate integrity, train users, and execute the cutover.
- Migrated data with validation
- User training materials
- Production deployment

Users accustomed to Airtable's flexible interface resist change: We design the custom UI to feel familiar — grid views, filtering, sorting — while adding capabilities Airtable lacks. User testing ensures adoption.
Complex Airtable automations are difficult to replicate: We map every Airtable automation to a serverless function or event-driven workflow, testing each one for parity before cutover.

How do you migrate the data?: We export Airtable data via the API, transform it to match the new schema, import into PostgreSQL, and validate record counts and relationships.
Can we keep Airtable for some workflows?: Yes. We can build a hybrid where the custom app handles high-volume data while Airtable remains for ad-hoc project tracking with two-way sync.
