Airplane is a developer platform for quickly building internal tools. Airplane lets you turn Python/JS/shell scripts, SQL queries, REST endpoints and more into lightweight internal apps that your support, operations, and other teams can use. Today, we provide UIs, notifications, permissions, approvals, audit logs, and more out of the box so that engineers only need to implement the backend logic of an operation. In the future, we'll support increasingly more complicated workflows and UIs.
Josh and I built Airplane due to our experiences at our previous companies. I previously co-founded Heap (YC W13) and Josh was CTO at Benchling (YC S12). During my time at Heap, we often had people on the professional services, success, etc. teams escalating issues to solutions engineers or infra engineers, who would then run one-off scripts to solve issues. This process was error-prone, interrupt-heavy, and annoying for everyone involved.
At Benchling, Josh built an internal system that solved part of these problems and was some of the initial inspiration for Airplane.
We would love to hear your feedback on Airplane! It's free to sign up and start using.
