Most boards answer one question. This one answers two.

Why Glattice exists, who builds it, and why it will still be here.

The problem it solves

Spreadsheets run the world, and they are excellent at structure. What they are bad at is thinking in more than one direction at once — the moment a project has a timeline and a priority and an owner and a goal, a flat sheet of dropdown lists stops helping.

Whiteboards have the opposite problem. Dragging cards around feels right, but a card on a whiteboard is a dumb shape: it doesn't know what it is, so nothing can query it, sort it, or hand it to an agent.

Glattice sits in between. Define the facets of your work once — status, priority, owner, quarter — and then choose which two of them the grid is made of. Swap that choice and the same data answers a different question. It is not magic; it is multi-dimensional organization for a multi-dimensional world.

How we operate

Glattice is independent and self-funded. There are no outside investors, no board pushing for an exit, and no acquisition being steered toward. That is the answer to the fair question every small vendor gets asked: what happens to my data if you go away?

The answer is that you can leave at any time, on any plan. Export to JSON or CSV is free, not a paid feature, and a lapsed Team space stays readable by its owner. We don't sell your data and we don't train models on it — the revenue comes from subscriptions, which is why the free tier has limits instead of ads.

What gets built is public as it ships. The changelog is dated and specific, the API reference is generated from the running spec, and the security posture — including what we don't have — is written down rather than implied.

Who builds it

Bob G., founder

Bob G., founder

Programmer by education, product manager by trade, fifteen years spent in the gap between structured data and creative mess. I built the first version of Glattice because I could not find a tool that matched how I think about work, and I kept building it because other people had the same shape of problem.

Built with focus in Akron, Ohio.
