Slightly different model would be very valuable. Airtables 50k row limit is very annoying and blocks us from even trying.

What is a use case? I am contemplating a more advanced excel-like app with separated flows for data acquisition (i.e. pulls via api), data management (tables, formulas, slicing) and view (graphing, input forms, buttons). I wonder if there would be a market for that and how to validate such idea…

Hi Ramraj, we literally had this painpoint ourselves and thats why we built it. Rowy is airtable-like experience but on your Google Firestore stack. That means its highly scalable without any limits. Give it a try.

Yes, Rowy has no limits on rows as it is actually an Airtable-like experience on Firebase database and not a nocode product that doesn't scale. You can go form MVP to scale without any limitations.
