Glide
Build powerful, data-driven mobile apps from spreadsheets—no code needed.
What is Glide?
Try GlideGlide is an intelligent no-code platform for building custom, AI-powered business apps without writing code. For manufacturing teams, it helps replace paper run sheets with live run updates, automate work-order and production workflows, and surface real-time reporting on throughput and downtime. With mobile-friendly access, teams can manage operations across the shop floor, warehouse, and office while keeping data connected as processes change.
What does Glide do for manufacturing teams?
Glide helps you build custom manufacturing software that tracks production runs and work orders, keeps run sheets up to date in real time, and automates workflows to route jobs, update statuses, and trigger delay alerts. It also lets you monitor SKUs, WIP, and batch numbers so you can prevent shortages from halting production and spot bottlenecks with AI-powered dashboards.
Can I build a manufacturing app without coding experience?
Yes. Glide is designed for non-technical teams and uses a simple visual app builder so you can create manufacturing apps to manage work orders, production tracking, and inventory without developers. It also supports custom workflows for automating repetitive tasks without coding.
How does Glide keep production data up to date across shifts?
Glide replaces paper run sheets with live run sheets that update in real time, giving operators and supervisors a clear view of what’s in progress, done, and next. You can also create automations that update production statuses and route work through stations so jobs don’t get stuck between shifts.
What AI capabilities does Glide include for manufacturing reporting?
Glide AI can flag delayed jobs and extract part numbers and specs from images. It can also summarize downtime reports and help your team build AI-powered dashboards to view downtime, throughput, and cycle-time KPIs without waiting on IT or ERP reporting.
Does Glide support inventory tracking and barcode scanning?
Yes. Glide supports barcode scanning so you can automatically track materials and SKUs and keep inventory flow moving without manual data entry. It also helps you monitor WIP and batch numbers in real time so counts stay synced and low stock can be caught early.
How does Glide handle security and access control?
Glide protects your critical data with enterprise-grade security controls and compliance including SOC 2 Type 2, GDPR, and CCPA. It also offers secure access controls with granular permissions so you can assign exactly who can see which operational information.
