What is Glide?

Try Glide

GlideOS is Glide’s AI software development platform for turning spreadsheets (or other inputs) into internal business apps in minutes. You can upload a spreadsheet, let GlideOS read its structure and logic, and then generate the screens and workflows you need. Apps run with live shared data so updates stay in sync, and you can add AI capabilities to any app with zero setup.

What is GlideOS, and how does it help you build apps from spreadsheets?

GlideOS helps you turn your spreadsheets into internal business apps tailored to how your team works. You can upload a spreadsheet, and GlideOS reads its structure, data, relationships, and logic to create the screens and workflows your business needs, so you don’t have to start over or rebuild from scratch.

Do I need to code to build apps with GlideOS?

No. GlideOS is designed for teams to create app solutions quickly without starting from code, including building apps using conversation by describing the problems you want to solve.

How does GlideOS keep data up to date across multiple apps and users?

Apps can read and write to the same live data, which means updates stay shared across your team’s apps without exports, duplicates, or stale copies. You can launch on desktop or mobile and keep improving as your business changes.

What AI capabilities can you add to an app in GlideOS?

You can add AI functionality to your apps by describing what you want, such as AI chat, summarization, and image generation. GlideOS also supports prompting to modify specific parts of an app, like a whole page, a component, or even a snippet of text.

Can GlideOS automate repetitive work, and how do workflows work?

Yes. GlideOS includes Workflows so you can define rules for repetitive operational tasks and let them run automatically.

How does GlideOS handle security, privacy, and access control?

GlideOS runs on infrastructure that’s SOC 2 Type 1 certified and is GDPR and CCPA compliant, with AES-256 encryption. It also uses securely stored credentials for connecting to third-party tools and supports sharing app data securely across your team.
