Meet Grist

Grist combines a spreadsheet interface with linked database tables. You can reuse records across related views, build a layout around a particular task, and collect new entries through forms. Formulas support familiar spreadsheet functions and Python syntax, while an AI assistant can work with records and calculations.

Access rules let you limit what a collaborator can see or change, including information reached through the assistant. A team can share a specific view without opening the entire dataset. Managed hosting and self-hosting are both options, with APIs, webhooks, and custom widgets available for connecting the application to a larger workflow.
