Say hello to GlideOS (and our CEO, @dvdsgl!) GlideOS is an all-new version of Glide, built for professionals looking to deploy custom AI solutions at work. GlideOS is an even more powerful tool for turning operational spreadsheets into apps, thanks to advancements in AI. We’ve introduced an AI-powered technique we call ‘SheetSense’, which can analyze your spreadsheet’s formulas, macros, charts, visuals and more, and turn it into software with no further context or prompting required. Just upload a spreadsheet (the bigger the better) and watch the magic happen. GlideOS is also exceedingly fast. It takes, on average, 4m 56s to build an app, so users can ship new software fast, often, and securely. Adding features, modifying the design, and otherwise iterating on the software you built is even faster. What used to take you a month or more to build with no-code tools now takes an hour or less with GlideOS. The best software in the world is built by the people closest to the problems. The next great piece of software deployed at your company could be built by you and your team... so ask yourself this: “What is my hair-on-fire problem at work?” Then come solve it with GlideOS.

🔥 New: Data Triggers - a powerful way to start an automation. When your data changes in your apps — for example, when your stock count increments — you may want your software to take action on its own, like sending an email to customers who had that SKU on their wishlist. Now, with the new Data Trigger function in workflows, you can automate a process to trigger when any of your data changes. All you need to do to create these workflows is ask the agent. Watch @jackmsvaughan break it down in this quick clip.

Now you can build software in Claude without having to worry about databases, authentication, security, etc. Just pick your model of choice, add Glide as a connector, and start solving your business problems without spending Glide credits. For more info: glideapps.com/mcp

"I have no idea what an MCP is, and at this point I'm too afraid to ask." If this resonates, you're not alone. While the acronym MCP has been floating around for some time, it's still an obscure concept for many. Luckily, one of @jackmsvaughan's superpowers is turning complicated technical concepts into approachable, easy-to-understand ones. He's here to help you grasp MCP (Model Context Protocol), how it works, and why it matters. Clear a few minutes off your schedule to learn something new 👇

NEW: Federated search in your GlideOS org 🔍 Click the magnifying glass at the top left of the screen - or use CMD+K (Mac) or CTRL+K (PC) - to quickly open the search box and find exactly what you're looking for in a split second. Once you've entered your search parameters, you can filter by Chats, Projects, or Apps to narrow it down. Watch the quick demo below for a complete run-through.

Connect your real business data from the start 🔌 Recently, we launched the mockup step, which gives you a quick look and some light control over your app's design before you actually go to build. We've just improved the mockup step by letting you connect your real business data first. Now, when you start a new app, Glide asks you to connect your live data sources before drawing the first mockup. The result is a mockup built on your actual columns and rows, not placeholder data.

Turn your feature roadmap into action items for Glide. Queue up your requests, and the agent will go through them in order. So next time you're about to take a lunch break, load your feature roadmap into the queue before you go. You'll be rewarded upon return.

MCP Server renamed to "Agents" in GlideOS Settings The "MCP Server" settings page is now called "Agents" and has been redesigned. To connect your own @claudeai, @ChatGPT or other LLM subscription to Glide, visit the new Agents tab in your settings. Our engineers are cooking. Our Changelog is getting daily updates.

"Building instead of buying is the way." Glide's CEO @dvdsgl, caught up with Maurizio Santos from Septix to learn about the 8 interconnected Glide apps he's built, deployed, and seen adopted across their entire operation. "Software should be specific to the business, and there's no reason why it should be difficult." Septix Waste is the largest portable toilet company in Puerto Rico, a family company founded in 1971, that leverages its own custom-made technology across the whole operation.
