Windsurf Alternative

Glide is purpose-built for operations teams—not developers relying on AI to scaffold code. While Windsurf helps engineers write code faster, Glide eliminates code altogether. You get a visual builder that connects data, automates workflows, and scales securely—no prompting, no debugging, no AI drift.

Yes—and without writing or maintaining code. Glide lets you build fully functional internal tools through a structured UI. You define tables, layouts, permissions, and logic visually. In Windsurf, building tools still means coding—Glide lets your ops team build real software without an engineer.

Scaling in Windsurf means more code—and potentially more time spent managing it. Glide handles growth with structured data models, role-based access, and built-in performance. As your app scales, so does Glide—no refactoring, no rewriting, no AI misfires. Just fast, reliable software your team controls.

Yes. Glide is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and designed with enterprise-grade security. Role-based access, SSO, and private data handling come standard. Windsurf runs your code through cloud-based AI models—Glide keeps your business logic and data private and governed, by design.

Windsurf is designed for individual developers writing and debugging code. Glide is made for teams building business systems—ops managers, analysts, and non-devs can create and iterate without waiting on engineering. With Glide, you don’t need tokens, prompts, or code reviews—just ideas and data.

Glide integrates AI directly into your workflows—no code required. You can summarize content, extract data, or generate insights with simple, visual actions. With AI-native builders, AI is focused on writing code. In Glide, AI helps your whole team work smarter—inside real business tools, not the terminal.
