At Quickbase, we’re on a mission to end a universal problem: Gray Work. The ad-hoc, manual work we do looking for documents, resources, etc. when technology isn’t working for us—that’s Gray Work, and it negatively impacts productivity, employee well-being and a company’s bottom line. Quickbase’s platform for Dynamic Work Management (the first ever) empowers nearly 12,000 organizations like Consigli, Suffolk, Valvoline, Daifuku and more to take on Gray Work by bringing people, processes, and data together into one central location, so employees can stop chasing information across systems and focus on work that makes an impact.

The Quickbase application development platform uses AI to empower anyone, regardless of technical or developer expertise, to easily build and customize scalable business solutions in just a few clicks, without compromising security, or IT governance and control. By connecting everything through a single source of truth, the Quickbase helps businesses mitigate risk, reduce waste, and cut down on unexpected costs. And with automated workflows and granular permissions, the right people will have access to the right information.
