Pricing model for developers vs users

It depends on the app.

• If you create a base that other people can copy to their own workspaces and use on their own (within the limits of the free plan), then there is no cost.

• If you create a web app using the Standard API, with your own method of validating users that doesn’t involve Airtable accounts, then there is no cost.

• If you create an app that requires paid features and an Airtable account for each user, then there is a cost per user.

Airtable has its own mobile iOS and Android apps. Airtable can also be used as a backend if you are going to write your own app. However, Airtable is not an app authoring platform, per se.
