After two years in the AI wilderness, finally the technology is allowing me to do business again with real opportunities to help other entrepreneurs and earn money doing it. 
 

I have learned a lot these past two years, building an app concept in the mental health care space, and now AI audit tools for small businesses. 
 

This past week, I struggled with two AI assistants trying to set up my lead generation database from one of the tools that were ready for launch. The experience, and an interview on YouTube with CEO Howie Liu, led me back to Airtable as a CRM for my new venture. Historically, I used Airtable for marketing content planning. I saw the value of integrations, but I didn’t want to pay for it. Now, I am hearing so many good things about what people have built and the huge benefits at the free level, I decided to come back. 

A lot has changed here too in two years. So, I’m hoping someone in the community can help me with their immediate experience with integrations through Make or if I upgrade, what that would bring in terms of workflow and productivity benefits that I can add to what I am getting with Claude Pro.

Hm, assuming your data source has a Make module this would be pretty easy to set up: whenever a new lead comes in create the record in Airtable

The main worry would be that the free tier only has 1k records per base and so it feels like it’d fill up pretty fast.  (There’s also a 100 API call limit, I’m not entirely sure how that interacts with integrations actually)

In terms of benefits, the main thing that comes to mind is automations I think?  You could potentially set up a system (either with formulas or with AI) that’ll help you grade the warmth of each lead and alert you if they’re above a certain threshold?

If you could talk about features you’d like to have I’ll see what I can do to help!

Thanks. I built an app in Retool and they claim they can automate the upload of the app submissions to an AirTable base. We have had a horrendous time with them getting the transfer of data automated using Make. If I can get it done directly, that solves that battle. As for the wam lead formula, I’m working on that with Claude Cowork.

Hm roger that.  When you say ‘upload of app submissions’, where is that data coming from?
