Baserow Hosting

Allow several minutes for the initial startup, as noted in PikaPods’ first-run instructions. Open your pod URL and sign up on that Baserow instance when prompted. Create a workspace and database, then add a table or start with a template. The getting-started guide explains the basic workflow.

No. PikaPods sets up and runs Baserow for you, including OS and app updates and HTTPS. You won't touch Docker or a server. Your data stays available over SFTP if you ever want to move it elsewhere.

Open your pod URL in a web browser to access your Baserow instance. Use the web interface to edit tables and work with forms; your hosted instance has its own account separate from Baserow Cloud. See the user documentation for supported workflows.

No. Baserow’s core is MIT licensed, but Premium and Enterprise features have separate commercial licenses. Check the current feature and license information before relying on a paid view or administration feature. Optional external integrations and AI providers may also require accounts and incur their own charges.

Set up incremental backups to S3 in your pod settings for automatic nightly snapshots, or copy your files over SFTP. We keep whole-server backups for server failures, but they aren't a per-pod restore service, so your own backup is what protects your data.

Baserow is an open source alternative to Airtable. Its source code is public, so anyone can inspect or improve it, and you aren't tied to one vendor.

No. You add prepaid credit and your pods are billed by the hour from that balance, rounded up to full hours. There are no contracts or minimum terms: delete a pod anytime and billing stops. Optional automatic top-ups keep your pods running without manual payments.

You do. And you're in full control. If you ever want to download, migrate, edit or delete your data, just enable SFTP access to your pod and it will be right there.
