Internal is the all-in-one platform that enables teams to quickly create powerful internal tools with app building, workflow automation, and task management. We combine an easy-to-use interface with advanced customization capabilities – making it the only platform where technical and non-technical teams can collaborate to build highly technical internal tools on top of databases and APIs. Watch our demo: https://youtu.be/HO4r616TeNE
I work for a startup called Fernish. We used Internal to rebuild our internal admin tools, which were originally built with the Administrate gem for rails. Our version of administrate was deprecated so we took the opportunity to rebuild our admin tools with Internal. The killer feature for us was role-based permissions. Internal makes it super easy to configure permissions for our admin users. This was a feature we didn't have with our previous Administrate solution. Internal is now part of our entire development lifecycle. Internal communicates with our system via API (or an HTTP Source in Internal). We're also able to connect our review apps, staging, and production environments to internal. As a frontend engineer that has built multiple admin tools in the past, I originally thought Internal was not necessary, but I have since changed my mind. Internal is a lot less work than hand-rolling a solution on our own.

Trevor empowers your whole team to get answers from your database, even if they don't know SQL. Query data in just a few clicks, share the results or stream them to Google Sheets, build dashboards, create email and Slack alerts, and lots more.
Trevor is such a great tool for sharing reports with the team!!! My wish list: (1) please let me add comments to each report, so I can inform my team members what it's about (2) Add a GPT-4 powered option to write raw-SQL. (I do that anyway by copy&pasting) Just today, I wrote a tutorial that describes how to build a data warehouse in one hour and I am using Trevor as the UI - https://www.linkedin.com/feed/up...
