Overview
Softr is a no-code platform for building business apps, including client and customer portals, either through an AI builder or visual editing[25]. Portals can draw on Softr’s own databases or on connected sources including Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, HubSpot, monday.com, MySQL, Postgres, Supabase and REST APIs[25]. Portal building blocks include sign-up and login pages, conditional forms, profile management, in-portal comments, document uploads and e-signature requests, shared project timelines, Stripe and PayPal payments and embedded dashboards; Softr also claims SOC 2 and GDPR compliance[25].
Pricing is per workspace with limits on builders, app users and records. App users are split into team users, who share a builder’s business email domain, and client users, which matters for portals because most external logins count as client users[24]. The Free plan allows five app users; Basic includes five team and five client users; Pro raises this to 10 and 50 with granular permissions and removal of Softr branding; Business allows 30 and 100 with 2FA, domain-restricted sign-up and a mobile PWA[24]. Softr says it is trusted by more than one million businesses[24].
