Ask HN: What are Airtable alternatives with higher rate limits?

1

Rows

[Baserow], [APITable], [Grist], and [Rowy] are all open source Airtable alternatives which offer hosted SaaS versions that include API access, though it's a bit difficult to compare the API rate limits across all these products. Self-hosting an app like this would allow you to bypass API rate limits altogether, if you're open to it. All the above products can be self-hosted — and you might want to look at [NocoDB] and [Mathesar] if you're considering self-hosting. There are some other proprietary Airtable competitors like [Retable], [Retool], [Rows], [Lists], [SeaTable], and [Tables] that might be worth looking at too.
