## What it is
Baserow is an open-source, no-code platform for building databases, applications, automations, dashboards, and AI agents, positioned as an Airtable alternative. It combines a spreadsheet-like interface with a PostgreSQL backend, a REST/WebSocket API, an application builder, workflow automations, and an AI assistant (Kuma), deployable on cloud or self-hosted.

## Use cases
- build a no-code database without technical experience
- find an open-source Airtable alternative to self-host
- create internal tools and custom apps without coding
- automate repetitive business workflows
- build dashboards to visualize team data
- migrate an Airtable base to a self-hosted platform
- give non-technical teams a spreadsheet-like database with an API
- manage CRM, task, or asset tracking data with GDPR compliance

## When to choose
- you want a self-hosted, API-first Airtable replacement with full data control
- you need compliance features like GDPR, HIPAA, or SOC 2
- your team is non-technical but needs databases, apps, and automations
- you want to extend the platform with plugins or integrate via REST/WebSocket APIs
- you need AI-assisted database and workflow creation

## When to avoid
- you need a lightweight embedded database or a pure developer library
- you require fully open-source enterprise features (premium/enterprise features are paid)
- you need heavy transactional workloads better suited to a raw SQL database
- you want a fully offline desktop tool rather than a web-based platform
