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.

SavvyCal makes scheduling collaborative instead of “here’s my link, pick a slot.” Built by Derrick Reimer (who co-founded Drip), it lets people overlay their own calendar when booking, which feels way less one-sided than traditional scheduling links. Bootstrapped to over $1M ARR.
