The database for apps, forms and workflows.

Zite database is purpose-built for apps, forms and business workflows.

Apps

Portals and internal tools, behind a login

Workflows

Automations on a schedule or a change

Public pages built from your rows

Formsby Fillout

Intake straight into a table

Scales to 10 million+ records.

Every database you create gets its own isolated Postgres. Real column types, real relationships, real query performance.

Its own Postgres, per database

Not a shared table. Each one is isolated, with its own compute.

Typed columns, not text

A number sorts like a number, a date filters like a date.

Priced on records, not seats

Unlimited editors and app users on every plan.

AI

Put AI to work on your data.

Run AI formula fields automatically when records change.

AI fields on 17 field types

Summarize, classify or score from other columns. Write the prompt, pick the model.

Let it search the web

Enrich records from public sources, per field.

Fill in bulk

Backfill up to 500 cells in a run, or just the empty ones.

Formulas you describe in English

Say what you want calculated. Zite writes it and checks it against the parser.

Read, write, automate.

Everything the grid does, the API does, at 30 requests a second per database.

A REST API over the whole thing

Tables, fields, records, bulk writes, aggregates and read-only SQL. Official Node client.

Webhooks you can debug

9 event types, HMAC-signed and retried. 90 days of delivery logs you can read in-app.

Reachable over MCP

Let Claude, Cursor or ChatGPT read, write and query your data.

Who sees what, down to the row.

Roles decide who reads and writes each table. Row filters decide which records come back at all.

Roles per table, per operation

View, create, edit and delete, set per role on each table.

Filters down to the row

Match a column against the signed-in user, so people see only their own rows.

Undo that goes back further than undo

Roll back to a specific minute, and preview it before you commit.

Migrate

Import your tables, links and formulas.

Airtable, Google Sheets, CSV or Excel, up to 100,000 records in one go. Pick a source to see what comes across.

From an Airtable base

Connect Airtable and pick a base. The whole thing lands as a Zite database.

Import from Airtable

What comes across

Every table
The whole base at once, with every field type kept.
Links, lookups and rollups
Rebuilt against the new tables and still linked up.
Formulas
Rewritten to the new fields. Unsupported ones keep their last value.
Attachments
Re-hosted on Zite, fetched in the background.

Loading 100,000 records runs 22× faster than on Airtable’s API.See the benchmark
