Airtable fits teams whose projects are really structured data, such as content calendars, product catalogs or production schedules with many linked records. Bases are relational databases, and project management features include Gantt and timeline views with date dependencies alongside grid, Kanban, calendar, gallery and dashboard views. The Free plan allows up to 5 editors per workspace, 1,000 records per base and 100 automation runs a month. Team costs $20 per user a month billed annually and raises limits to 50,000 records per base, 25,000 automation runs and 1-year revision history. Airtable bills only users with edit permissions, so read-only collaborators, form submitters and share-link viewers are free. Business at $45 adds more capacity and admin controls. As a general task tracker, Airtable costs more per seat than every other verified price here and needs more setup, which is why it ranks last for teams that only need tasks and deadlines.
