Baserow

Open-source Airtable alternative with an AI assistant that builds and populates database tables from natural language.

Updated July 31, 2026

The read

Baserow is an open-source database and application platform that lets teams organize data, build custom views, and automate workflows without writing code. Its AI assistant Kuma lets users describe what data they want to manage and automatically creates the table structure. The platform offers grid, kanban, calendar, timeline, form, and survey views, plus AI fields that can classify, summarize, or enrich data using OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, or Deepseek. Self-hosting is free and unlimited, with a generous cloud free tier of three thousand rows. Baserow is a data management tool first; the application layer is thinner than purpose-built internal tool builders, so teams needing rich UI components beyond views will find it limiting.

Where it shines

Open-source with unlimited self-hosted option and active community
Kuma AI builds table schemas from natural language descriptions
AI Fields enrich or classify data using multiple LLM providers

Worth knowing first

Application UI layer is thinner than dedicated internal tool builders
Free cloud tier limited to 3,000 rows, which fills quickly for real datasets
