    Notion seems like a wiki, but it's tables are databases with much similar features like Airtable has (you can link items, save different views like kanban, calendar, gallery and so on). And you can combine that with the wiki features, having different displays of your base put in one page with different filters on to have a custom dashboard for example. Only thing it lacks are native forms, but you can embed third party forms into your pages.

    Norion is more like a wiki and a document repositiry. Airtable is more a Spreadsheet/Database hybrid with additional features.

    Airtable is a database/spreadsheet. Notion is a beefed up notes app/wiki with some project management features.

    More easy to use, more user-driven features. As a longtime Airtable user, Grist is the alternative I didn't know I needed!

    In Grist I can arrange my screen by linking tables or cards, so it feels more like an application.

    Nearly identical to Notion.so, the Table function is a better version of AirTable. The formula capabilities are greater than Airtable and support multiple levels of indirection as well as syntax highlighting and autocomplete in the formula entry. Comparably, AirTable supports only single level lookup indirection and has a significantly reduced formula set.
