Model entities and fields, connect them with relationships, work with records in a grid, kanban or map, and manage files and search.

Call the instant REST API generated from your data model, read the project's own API docs, manage API keys, and use the SDK.

Set up email and social sign-in, manage users and teams, define roles and permissions, and scope records with groups and row-level security.

Trigger workflows from data, schedules or webhooks, chain steps together, send email and push, and monitor and debug every run.

Connect Slack and Google Calendar, let each user connect their own account, rotate or disconnect a connection, and see every provider.

Connect Claude and other AI assistants to your project over MCP, chat with your data in the dashboard, and see every MCP tool.

Set up plans and subscriptions, take payment with Stripe or Apple in-app purchases, and run trials, offers and entitlements.

Build charts and materialised views over your data, brand the Anythink dashboard for your team, and configure its menus.
