Cool ghost, @howietl. Thanks!👻😎 ...I put the YouTube channel on Autoplay during my break and I'm looking forward to watching everything at some point. Your presentation to SXSW 2016 is quite easy to listen to. Do you speak at a lot of conferences?
@kristindrysdale Heh, thank you! To be honest, I don't do very many, and I find it too cringeworthy to watch myself afterwards : p. I'm glad you liked it!
I use this product every day. In particular, I've been using their API so that Airtable becomes a realtime database for some side-projects hosted on https://zeit.co/now. Highly recommended!
Hi ProductHunt! And thanks @joshwilliams for hunting us! After many months of hard work from our team, today we're announcing the public release of Airtable V2, which includes a new design, new ways to visualize your content (beyond the grid), and downloadable Mac, Windows, and Android apps.
Airtable is not just a spreadsheet replacement, nor just a user-friendly database. We think of it as a completely new medium for expressing and collaborating on structured information. Some examples of what I mean:
-How Zapier uses Airtable to automate customer feedback collection: https://airtable.news/closing-th...
-How the Jacksonville Jaguars uses Airtable to manage their marketing and analytics: https://airtable.news/the-team-b...
-How WeWork uses Airtable to build their community spaces: https://airtable.news/catalyzing...
Over 2 million bases have now been created by Airtable users, and your support has been crucial to our success from day one. We have an exciting roadmap of product improvements ahead, and we're excited to share the journey with you!
If you have any questions or feedback, please feel free to post here or email me directly at howie@airtable.com. Thanks again!

EU based companies are prohibited from exporting personal data to overseas-based service providers unless an exception applies. For Airtable, the only one that could apply is the Provacy Shield.
Pros:
Looks great - I could deploy it tomorrow.
Cons:
I will never be able to because Airtable is not Privacy Shield compliant and, they tell me, ”have no plans to be”.

This is pretty awesome. I spent 3 days building a better visualization for my Google Sheets using Awesome Table. I could have done something similar with Airtable in 30 minutes. Maybe Google is watching. Otherwise, they should.

I'm going to reply to myself. This tool is indeed fucking awesome.
We are constantly searching for something to help us work with 1M+ row spreadsheets. We were hopefully last time we looked at Airtable, until we saw there is a 2MB limit on CSV uploads :( Has this been fixed?
@howietl Not entirely sure what that means, but these are spreadsheets that we have humans reading and editing. I will infer from your answer that you have no plans to increase that limit though. Thanks.
@ethosventures In the linked twitter thread, I note that we do plan on increasing the 2MB limit soon, but have no short-term plans to support million+ record bases.
@howietl Good to know. We are looking for an Excel alternative that enables online sharing and collaboration of large files. Definitely more human-scale than db alternative. Thanks for the info!
