Softr Development

A client portal or web app.
No developers. No waiting months.

Softr turns your Airtable data into beautiful, functional web applications — client portals, member sites, directories, and dashboards. Jonathan builds Softr applications that would cost $20,000+ in custom development for a fraction of the price and timeline.

What Softr is

A web app builder with real design quality — powered by your Airtable data

Softr is a no-code platform that lets you build client-facing web applications directly on top of an Airtable base. Think: a client portal where customers log in and see their project status, documents, and invoices. Or a member directory where subscribers browse listings and update their own profiles. Or a team dashboard where staff see only the records relevant to their role.

The reason we recommend Softr for most use cases (vs. building custom or using Bubble) is speed and maintainability. A well-built Softr app can be live in days, not months — and the client or their team can make changes to data and simple content without involving a developer.

Jonathan has built Softr applications for destination marketing, community organizations, service businesses, and nonprofits. The combination of Airtable + Softr + automation tools like Make and Zapier can replace entire software subscriptions.

WHAT YOU CAN BUILD WITH SOFTR
  • Client portals with login, documents, and project status
  • Member directories and community platforms
  • Business or service directories with filtering
  • Internal dashboards and reporting tools
  • Job boards and marketplace listings
  • Booking and scheduling tools with user accounts
Why this matters for your business
When you own the tech stack — Airtable as your database, Softr as your interface, Make/Zapier for automation — you're not locked into any SaaS platform. The data is yours. The system is yours. We build it once, and you can hand it off to your team.
What we build

Softr applications that
your clients will actually use.

🔐

Client Portals

Login-protected portals where clients see their project status, deliverables, invoices, and documents. Each client sees only their own data.

👥

Member Platforms

Gated membership communities, subscriber-only content, and member directories — with tiered access levels and profile management.

📍

Directories & Marketplaces

Searchable, filterable public or gated directories — business listings, service providers, vendor marketplaces, or resource libraries.

📊

Internal Dashboards

Internal operations tools, reporting dashboards, and team workflow apps — role-based access so each person sees what's relevant to them.

📝

Forms & Submissions

Application forms, intake questionnaires, and user-submitted content flows — all writing directly to Airtable and triggering downstream automations.

🔄

Full Airtable Integration

Your Softr app and Airtable base stay in sync in real time. Updates in Airtable appear instantly in the app — no separate database to manage.
