A Baserow alternative, hosted in Europe
Baserow: An open-core no-code database with an application builder, from the Netherlands, in the cloud or self-hosted. Artavolo is where your team and your AI agents work on the same tables, with no record limit, in our cloud in Germany or on your own server. Here is how they compare, with sources, and where Baserow is ahead.
| Artavolo | Baserow | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $8 a person a month (Standard), VAT included, the same on your own server | $10: Premium, per person a month billed yearly; Advanced $18. The same prices self-hosted. |
| A team of 10, a year | $720 (Standard billed yearly, VAT included) | $1,200 a year (Premium, 10 people), before tax |
| Records | No limit, on every plan, the free one included | 3,000 rows per workspace on Free, 50,000 on Premium, 250,000 on Advanced |
| Where your data lives | OVHcloud in Germany, or your own server | Germany |
| Run it yourself | Yes, with the same plans and prices; the Community edition is free | Yes: the open-source core is free; kanban, calendar and Excel export need Premium even self-hosted |
| Getting your data out | Any table as Airtable-format CSV or JSON, the API, and full backups | Each table as CSV (Excel, JSON and XML on Premium); a workspace zip only Baserow can read |
| API | REST, plus Airtable’s API at the same paths, on every plan | REST with database tokens |
| AI agents | Each with its own access; their changes can wait for a person to accept them, and everything one did can be undone | See Baserow’s own AI features |
| Where Baserow is ahead | An application builder for portals on top of the database. | |
| An MIT-licensed core you can change. |

From Baserow in an afternoon
Export from Baserow (CSV, one file per table (Excel on Premium)), and bring the files in: what comes over is shown before anything is made, and a report says what came over and what to rebuild.
- Every table and row
- Links between tables: Baserow exports a link as the names of the linked rows, and the import links them again
- Selects, dates, numbers, e-mail and URLs
- Formulas as their values
