Build docs as powerful as apps
- Docs in free workspaces support a limited number of rows and objects such as pages and tables to get you started.
- Automations: With time- or action-based rules, you can put small, important tasks on autopilot—like sending daily updates. Up to 35 time based and 100 row changed automations per month, per doc.
- Packs connect your doc to the apps you use everyday, so you can pull live data in or push updates out automatically. A limited number of Packs are available under the Free plan.
