The features that only matter once real people depend on the thing — and the ones most tools leave until version two.
Changes land for everyone in the room before the keystroke finishes. Conflict resolution is per-field, so two people can edit one record without a merge dialog.
Roles down to the field. Give finance the numbers and support the notes, from the same table, without duplicating a thing.
Every query, mutation and webhook charted by route. Find the endpoint that got slow last Tuesday without adding a tracing library.
Postgres, S3, a CSV someone emailed you. Connect it once and it behaves like a native table everywhere else in the product.
