Glide Apps Platform

The platform enables users to construct mobile and web applications using a visual interface, drawing data from sources such as spreadsheets, databases, and connected business systems. Applications built on Glide can include features such as data entry forms, user authentication, role-based access, automated workflows, and integrations with third-party services.

The platform provides templates and pre-built components that can be configured and customised through a drag-and-drop editor rather than written code. In educational settings, Glide can be used by administrative staff, IT teams, and departmental leads to create internal applications for tasks such as resource booking, staff directories, equipment tracking, visitor logging, and data collection forms.

The platform is typically used by organisations seeking to digitise paper-based processes or replace spreadsheet-driven workflows without commissioning bespoke software development. Applications are accessible via web browsers and mobile devices, and changes made within the editor are reflected across deployed apps.

Glide offers tiered subscription plans aimed at individuals, small teams, and larger organisations with additional administration and security requirements.
