Syncing Airtable and Webflow

Hey everyone! Wanted to share something we've been working on for a while called Whalesync: https://www.whalesync.com/airtable-webflow/sync

It syncs data between Airtable and Webfow (real-time, two-way). It should be much easier than trying to set this up with a 10-step Zap or Make flow.

I made a demo video you can check out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3vjD5Oc9o8

We're going to be adding new integrations this summer (eg. Notion).

Would love any feedback!

    Super rad, nobull is great but in my experience it works best for batch uploads which is not ideal for every use case. Subscribed to your YT channel and I'll definitely be on the lookout for your Notion integration!

      Hi John! As promised, wanted to follow up now that our Notion integration is going live.

      We're opening up an early access beta in a few days. Lmk if you want to participate!

      Thanks John! Yup, totally agree re: real-time being necessary for certain use cases.

      Will let you know as soon as Notion is live!

    Hey Matthew,

    Amazing, well done!

    What is the diffrence between Whalesync and Nobull (Finsweet) https://nobull-airtable.webflow.io/

    ?

    1. 1

      Thanks so much! And good question.

      At a detailed level:

      • we sync in real-time (rather than batches every minute)
      • we give detailed error messages (instead of failing silently)
      • we're a standalone app, so you don't have to keep Airtable open for syncs to run
      • we sync two-way (coming soon)

      At a high level:
      the big difference is that we're building this as a paid service. This means we're able to improve it every week and soon add new integrations like Notion. Nobull is amazing as a free product (and we love the F'nsweet team!).

        How can you sync in real time? Does Airtable have web hooks now?

        1. 1

          They still don't have webhooks unfortunately :(. Cannot wait for Airtable to add them haha.

          We have a workaround on our side to make real-time work.
