About Glide

Glide is a web-based app builder that allows non-programmers to quickly create powerful and beautiful internal business apps by starting from scratch, starting with a prompt, or starting with a spreadsheet.

For 30 years, app development had barely changed. When Glide launched, we brought app development out of the Dark Ages, making it web-based, collaborative, accessible, and fun.

Today, the influence of AI on coding has propelled app development even further. And Glide has risen to the occasion. The next generation of Glide gives users an AI-first method for building internal business software without worrying about granular-level control, security, authentication, database infrastructure, or deployment woes.

Our mission is to become the operating system for your business by helping you turn all of your operational spreadsheets and data into beautiful, intelligent apps.

We're three technical founders with expertise in native mobile frameworks, developer tools, and product design. We've worked together for 5-10 years, and were all early employees at Xamarin, a mobile developer tools startup acquired by Microsoft in 2016.
