Glide is the AI platform that turns ideas and operational spreadsheets into beautiful, intelligent apps for the retail industry — without having to code. Retail and ops teams describe their problems and needs in plain language and get a working business app in minutes, connected in real time to the spreadsheets, ERPs, and databases they already run on. Founded in 2018 by a team of Microsoft veterans, backed by Y Combinator and Benchmark, Glide has grown into a platform trusted by more than 100,000 companies, including Costco, Coca-Cola, HP, Airbus, Hilton, Volkswagen, and Hunter Douglas. They use Glide to run inventory, logistics, procurement, vendor management, warehouse operations, and more. For retail teams specifically, Glide replaces spreadsheet chaos and rigid legacy systems with custom, mobile-ready apps for order tracking, stock allocation, and vendor performance — built and deployed in weeks, not quarters.
