## About Softr

Softr is a no-code app development platform that lets businesses build custom, AI-powered apps on top of their data and workflows. It connects to 15+ native data sources including Airtable, Hubspot, Notion, monday.com, Supabase, SQL databases, and more, or integrates with any other system through the REST API. You can also create and manage data directly in Softr Databases, giving you full flexibility over where your data lives.
You can get started fast with ready-made templates, then drag and drop to customize layouts, design, and logic to match your workflows. With user groups and granular permissions, you control exactly what each person can see and do. Softr also supports white-label customization so apps can reflect your business branding.
With Softr, teams can build and launch apps in hours, not months. Instead of relying on multiple disconnected tools, you can create the exact apps you need on one platform — such as portals, CRMs, dashboards, ERPs, and more — all fully customizable to your workflows. Apps are easy to update and iterate, so you can add features, connect new data sources, or adjust workflows as your business grows. Enterprise-grade security comes standard, with SOC 2 Type II compliance and SSO.
