Business Idea: A customizable client portal platform that integrates seamlessly with Airtable, enabling businesses to securely share specific project data, updates, and approvals with clients, enhancing transparency and efficiency.
Problem: Traditional Airtable sharing options are clunky and insecure, forcing users to disclose entire bases or pay extra for limited access, leading to inefficiency, frustration, and security concerns.
Solution: A simple-to-use tool that creates tailored, branded client portals where clients see only what they need, receive real-time updates, and can update specific fields without access to the full data, streamlining communication and project management.
Target Audience: Micro SaaS founders, freelancers, agencies, and small businesses managing client projects who use Airtable and seek more secure, efficient, and branded client sharing solutions.
Monetization: Subscription model with tiered pricing based on features, usage, or number of clients, alongside offering free trials and free projects to attract early adopters.
Unique Selling Proposition (USP): Highly customizable, visually appealing portals with precise access control, real-time sync, and no templated feel, differentiating from bulky, rigid alternatives like Softr or Glide.
Launch Strategy: Start with a minimal viable product allowing users to create basic portals, run a targeted launch to existing Airtable users, gather feedback through free trials, and iterate quickly to emphasize ease of use and customization.
