Relevance Statement: Airtable stands out as a unique and accessible tool to collect, analyze, and visualize data. There are no complex formulas to learn or slow down spreadsheet performance (aka ‘spinning wheel of death’). Its user-friendly interface makes it easy to learn and share with others. Data tables (grid view) can be turned into surveys (form view) that funnel into fully customizable dashboards (interfaces) to visualize data in real-time. Dashboards, as well as individual charts and graphs, can also be easily duplicated and modified. This means multiple dashboards using the same dataset(s) can be tailored around demographics, potential insights, trends, and impact to meet the needs of a wide range of audiences.
