Who it is for, and what it does well
Airtable
Teams that keep structured data in tables and build their own apps on it.
- Spreadsheet feel, database power. Linked tables that non-developers can shape.
- Views and forms. Grid, kanban, calendar and gallery over one table.
- Interfaces. Custom screens for the people who use the data.
Vyre
The agentic command center for AI-native teams: people and agents work in one Space on a server you own.
Industry-neutral. You shape the records, and Flows, Playbooks and a Gate run the work.
Works with Vyre.
How Vyre connects to Airtable today.
Today
Airtable publishes a web API. A person adds a Connection in the Vault that declares the host, how the key is sent and which operations read, draft, change, send, spend or delete. A Flow then calls the service from a web step, or a custom module wraps it.
Where the vendor publishes an MCP server, a person can add it for agents to use.
Coming in 0.5.2
A packaged Integration, so the Connection and its operations arrive ready-made.
Vyre can be extended by integrating your Zoho, QuickBooks, RingCentral and the rest of your software stack*, Airtable included.
*Where the vendor provides an API.
Where Vyre replaces it.
What Vyre does natively.
If your team uses Airtable only for lists and boards, Vyre covers that role, so you can drop the tool. If you use Airtable for more, run them side by side and connect them.
Records
Record types and fields in your own words, linked to each other, with imports from Excel and CSV.
Flows
Flows start when a record changes or enters a stage.
Agents
Agents read and update the records under a role, with sealed fields kept from them.
A team that only keeps lists and boards in Airtable can move them into Records. Keep Airtable for bases other systems depend on.
Why that helps.
What a team gets from it.
The table is the same idea. In Vyre the agents and the approvals sit next to it.
- One place for people and agentsPeople and agents are members of the same Space. They share the records, tasks, files and chat, so nobody carries data from one tool to the next.
- Data on your own serverRecords, files and the history of every decision stay on a server you own. Sealed fields show an agent a placeholder.
- Fewer subscriptions and less copy-pasteOne Space covers parts of a job that took several tools, so there are fewer logins and fewer places to keep in step.

| What it is | Relational databases with views, forms and automations. | A shared working layer for people and agents: records, tasks, Flows, documents, sites and a Gate. |
| Where it runs | Hosted by the vendor. | On a server you own. |
| Connecting to the other | Airtable publishes a web API. | A Connection in the Vault and a Flow web step or custom module. Coming in 0.5.2: a packaged Integration. |
| Parts of the job in Vyre | Set by the product. | Records, Flows and Agents. |
| Outward actions | Set by how the product is configured. | Held at the Gate until a person approves the exact words. |
The left column comes from the product’s public documentation or describes the kind of product. Where it differs, the vendor’s own documentation is the one to trust.
