Details
Airtable is what spreadsheets should have been. Part spreadsheet, part database, all flexible. Founded by Howie Liu who noticed 90% of spreadsheets don’t even use formulas: people just organize stuff. Great for tracking anything from content calendars to customer lists to inventory. Bending Spoons, the Italian software company, completed its purchase of Airtable on 4 September 2026.
Pitch is presentations for people who care about design. Founded by Christian Reber (who built Wunderlist). Had a wild journey: raised $52M VC, then returned the money and went bootstrapped in 2024. Employees now own 80%. Interesting story of de-scaling.
