Glide

Glide operates a no-code application development platform that enables users to build mobile and web applications without programming knowledge. The company was founded in 2018 by David Siegel and Jason Smith and is headquartered in San Francisco, California. The platform transforms Google Sheets and other data sources into functional applications.

Glide's platform allows users to create applications by connecting data sources such as Google Sheets, Airtable, and SQL databases, then designing user interfaces through drag-and-drop functionality. The company serves small businesses, enterprises, and individual creators who need to build internal tools, customer-facing applications, and workflow automation solutions. The platform includes features for user authentication, data visualization, and mobile-responsive design.

The company raised a $20 million Series A round in 2021 led by GV (Google Ventures) with participation from Homebrew and other investors. Glide has built a community of over 100,000 app creators and processes millions of app interactions monthly. The platform competes in the no-code development space alongside companies like Bubble, Webflow, and Airtable.
