Knack
Knack is a no-code platform for building custom online databases and business applications. It combines a relational database with a visual app builder, letting non-technical users create portals, CRMs, trackers, and other tools, including through AI prompts.
Key Features
- Relational database with many field types and table relationships
- Visual drag-and-drop app builder for forms, tables, charts, and dashboards
- AI app builder that generates apps from plain-language prompts
- Workflow automation with conditional triggers and multi-step processes
- User roles, logins, and customer or vendor portals
- Data import from spreadsheets, plus integrations, APIs, and webhooks
Core Use Cases
- Building custom CRMs and customer or vendor portals
- Creating inventory, project, and order trackers
- Replacing spreadsheets with a structured database
- Automating record updates and notifications
- Delivering custom apps to clients
Best Suited For
Small businesses, enterprises, agencies, and non-technical teams that need custom database-driven applications without writing code.
Business Benefits
Knack lets teams move from scattered spreadsheets to structured, hosted applications without developers. Its automation and role-based access help organizations manage data and workflows in one place, and agencies can deliver apps to clients.
Why They Stand Out
Knack centers on a robust relational database paired with a visual builder and an AI app builder, generating hosted, ready-to-use applications rather than raw code.
Trusted & Proven
Knack is used by tens of thousands of organizations, including businesses, healthcare providers, government agencies, schools, and nonprofits, and offers many integrations and a free trial.
