Hey everyone, excited to do this!

I've been a borderline fanatic Airtable builder since 2019. I discovered the platform as a customer looking for a better solution than a massive and very complicated spreadsheet I'd created to run our workflows. Now I work on Airtable Academy, helping design the courses, certifications, and learning paths that help other people (hopefully) fall in love with Airtable as well.

One of the things I own is AcademyOS, which is the Airtable app that powers our content workflows for the Academy team. It tracks everything from an incoming course request to the day something goes live: lessons, deliverables, feedback, sprint planning, etc.

Recently I've been experimenting with AI agents to help the team ship content faster and find ways to automate the trickier parts of the workflow, including triaging feedback, content requests and product changes, creating sprint plans, drafting course content and uploading completed content to the Academy. I currently have a fleet of 11 agents, each owning different parts of the workflow.

Drop your questions below — I'm happy to talk app design, content operations, automations, AI features and my experience with implementing AI agents in Airtable. See you at 7am PT on August 26th!

Who: Lindsey Puccio (LP), Sr. Manager, Airtable for Airtable

Hey everyone — a little about me:

I first learned Airtable hands-on at Equinox Media, where I built our content operations pipeline on it. Before that I was an agency producer, producing commercials for big brands.

I joined Airtable four years ago in Marketing building internal tools, and somewhere between fixing workflows and rebuilding them into Airtable, I was moved to do the same for the whole company and create Airtable for Airtable (A4A). We're part internal-tools shop, part product R&D. We do four things: build the operational systems teams run on, teach and uplevel employees, showcase what's possible with the product, and feed customer-zero feedback straight to ProdDev.

The builds aren't toy demos — our procure-to-pay system replaced a $200K+/yr software vendor and spans intake, architectural review triage, and vendor lifecycle, all running in production for real teams. 

Lately, most of my time goes to defining ways to implement AI for scalable use, using Airtable as the substrate. We designed and are actively building a fleet of agents on Hyperagent that do exactly what we do — build durable, UX-friendly, ops-focused systems. Right now they're triaging requests, syncing meeting context, doing solution design, workflow mapping, custom interface builds, and enabling our end users. The interesting problems to me aren't the models; they're the architecture around them: permissions, governance, reviewer feedback loops, and knowing which processes deserve an agent at all.

What I enjoy most is the hunt for leverage — playing up and down the information supply chain, finding the one place where a build, a sync, or an integration solves the problem at its source instead of patching it downstream. 

Hey r/Airtable, following up on our Product Updates session (there's one tomorrow at 10am BST or keep an eye out for the recording), we're excited to bring you an AMA with AP from our Product team.

Drop your questions below and AP will be hopping in to answer on July 28, 10am-11am PT.

When: Tuesday, July 28 at 10am PT 

Who: AP (Akshar Patel), Product Manager at Airtable

Hey everyone, excited to be doing this. A little about me:

I've been at Airtable about four and a half years, and I came at it from a slightly unusual direction. For the first three-plus years I was on the delivery side, designing and deploying bases for 50+ enterprise teams across media, pharma, hospitality, and consumer brands.

About a year ago I moved over to Product, where I now own a set of enterprise-facing areas and even ship some features myself, writing and merging production code. Lately I've been working on improving Airtable's features and capabilities in date dependencies, portfolio and project management, AI, and our mobile app.

What I enjoy most is taking a messy "this is just how we've always done it" process and rebuilding it into something simple that people actually want to use. I spent a decade teaching and coaching before I got into tech, so I get a real kick out of the moment something finally clicks for someone. I like untangling gnarly automation logic, figuring out how to make one base do the job of five separate tools, and I'm genuinely into this new world where you can connect Airtable to Claude or ChatGPT, work with your data directly, and build or report from there. Happy to talk high-level strategy or get down into the weeds on how something actually works.

Ask away, whether it's product roadmap stuff, automation puzzles you're stuck on, or anything about building with AI and Airtable together.

Who: Ross Collins, Senior Base Optimization Specialist at Airtable

Hey everyone, excited to be doing this. A little about me:

I've been in support at Airtable for four and a half years and have done over 2,700 live calls troubleshooting and building alongside customers, everyone from solo operators to our largest enterprise accounts, across just about every use case you can throw at the platform. I've represented Airtable at several buildathons, both as a judge and as support for the builders, and I've helped customers get up to speed on AI through a few different initiatives we've run. Lately I'm pretty excited about this new world where you can connect Airtable to Claude or ChatGPT, interact with your data directly, and build/report from there.

What I enjoy most is helping people turn complicated problems into simple workflows they actually want to use. I like auditing processes to find the core workflow and rebuild it into something simple and easy to adopt, and I like challenging the "this is how we've always done it" assumptions, because that's usually where the real efficiencies hide. I have fun unraveling complicated automation errors, and I like helping people use Airtable in creative ways, often mimicking how other point solutions work. Happy to talk high-level concepts or get into the weeds on how something actually works.

Drop your questions below and I'll start answering live at 11am PT on the 15th. Ask me about base design, automations, scaling from a scrappy solo setup to something enterprise ready, AI integrations, or anything else Airtable related. Looking forward to it!
