Years spent managing projects where spreadsheets were the backbone of operations.
What if spreadsheets could act like lightweight databases without forcing users to learn complex software?
A platform designed to bridge the gap between spreadsheets and traditional databases.
Hi, I'm Dan Northway, founder and developer of DataMateApps. Before retiring, I spent my career managing construction projects where spreadsheets were used for nearly everything.
That idea eventually became DataMate. The goal was never to replace enterprise systems or SQL databases. Instead, it was to give small businesses and teams a practical, affordable way to organize and manage information.
Today, DataMate remains free because the mission matters more than the software itself. Every user helps shape its future.
If DataMate has helped your business, saved you time, or inspired a project, consider supporting the future of the platform.
