Hello Gliders!
It’s been a hot minute since our last community update, but this isn’t a summer slump - the team’s been very busy, especially with new AI-powered features.
But first…
Extended Q&A: Building a $1M Agency with No Code
A few weeks ago we held a great session with Oscar Brooks, CEO at V88, a UK-based Glide agency. We talked about how V88 got started, their rapid growth, and their approach to working with clients.
It’s a must-watch for anyone thinking about starting their own no-code agency.
There were more audience questions than we had time for, so Oscar and I hopped on a follow-up call. Watch the extended Q&A on our site.
Preview: AI-Generated Custom Components
Our new AI-powered custom component builder is now available in preview. Help us improve it by sharing your feedback in the announcement thread.
You can enable this feature in your team settings:
Quickly create new apps with an AI prompt
AI Generated is now an option when creating a new app. Get a head start on your new builds by letting Glide set up the data tables and layout screens based on your prompt.
Redesigned Glide website
Our new site homepage covers all the fundamental concepts of Glide, without overwhelming newcomers with all the details. So if you ever want to introduce someone to Glide, just send them to the website.
