Our take
Glide is one of the cleaner ways to turn a spreadsheet into a real internal app, and its AI now scaffolds layouts, formulas and on-data actions so non-developers get further faster. It is genuinely easy, with a free tier to try first. Pricing can climb with users and updates, and complex logic hits no-code limits, but for internal tools and quick apps it is hard to beat on speed.
Best for
Non-technical teams and operators who want to turn spreadsheets into shareable internal apps such as trackers, directories, inventory or field tools without hiring developers.
Pros
- Turns Sheets, Excel or its own tables into real apps, no code
- AI generates layouts, formulas and on-data actions
- Built-in logins, roles and sharing for internal tools
- Free tier to start; fast to a working prototype
Cons
- Pricing scales with users and updates, so it can add up
- Very complex logic hits no-code ceilings
- Heavily structured around your underlying data model
How it compares
Against spreadsheet-native AI like Bricks or Rows, Glide's focus is shipping an actual app with logins and roles rather than a smarter sheet; against developer no-code like Bolt or Lovable, it trades open-ended flexibility for speed and approachability for non-coders.

NotebookLM
Google's source-grounded research assistant: upload docs, PDFs and links, then ask questions, generate study guides, and turn sources into audio and video overviews. The free tier is genuinely usable; Plus raises the limits.
OpenRouter
OpenRouter is a unified API and marketplace for large language models. With one account and key you can reach 300+ models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Mistral, Cohere and many smaller providers, using an OpenAI-compatible interface. It charges passthrough rates (provider cost plus a small markup) and publishes live pricing and usage-based model rankings, so you can compare options and route to the cheapest, fastest or most reliable one. It supports automatic fallback across providers and a free-model tier for experimentation; the main costs to watch are a 5.5% credit-card fee, which hits small top-ups hardest, and a 5% bring-your-own-key fee on requests above one million per month.
Gamma
AI design tool that generates polished presentations, websites, documents, and social graphics from a prompt or outline.
