Airtable is a cloud platform for organizing relational data and building governed workflows for teams.

Integrations listed include Slack, Google Drive, Salesforce, Jira and Zendesk; native integrations include email, Dropbox, Box, Gmail, Google Drive and Typeform. Permission settings can be customized for collaborators, and share links can be password-protected or limited by email domain. Other security features include record-level revision history and two-factor authentication. Airtable lists compliance coverage or certification information for SOC 2 Type 2, ISO/IEC 27001:2022, ISO/IEC 27701:2019, HIPAA and TX-RAMP Level 2. It offers web access, an API and extension, plus macOS, Windows, iOS and Android apps. The Free plan is for individuals or very small teams and allows 1,000 records per base. Team costs $20 a month billed annually; a 14-day trial is listed.

Caspio is an AI platform for building custom business applications, including databases, portals, dashboards, and workflow tools. Its visual builder creates forms, reports, charts, and calendars; it can also generate an application's data model, interface, and roles from a description. Applications use a SQL Server data core with role-level and record-level security, and can be hosted by Caspio or deployed on a customer's website, CMS, or portal. The platform provides REST API access, webhooks, and extensions, and lists Zapier, Make, n8n, and Keragon as workflow integration platforms. Pricing plans include unlimited application users without per-user fees. Caspio says plans include encryption, role-based access controls, and secure cloud hosting. A free trial is available, but there is no free plan. Enterprise is described as providing governance, security, and guaranteed performance. HIPAA/Compliance is an add-on to a standard plan at $500 a year, billed for a one-year term; it includes compliant infrastructure, a signed BAA, encryption at rest, an audit trail, and 21-day backups. Caspio says it is annually certified for HIPAA, SOC 2 Type II, and GDPR, and lists PCI DSS Level 1 validation.
