Twake Drive vs Softr: at a glance
What is Twake Drive?
Twake Drive's AI assistant now works inside OnlyOffice spreadsheets, charts included.
Twake Drive's 1.109 beta cycle continues: beta.2 brings the OnlyOffice AI assistant to spreadsheets, where it reads selected cells and writes answers or charts in place, and improves its handling of code, tables and footnotes in text documents. It also redesigns the share modal with a separate public access block. Beta.3 suggests groups alongside contacts when sharing and fixes several shared-drive bugs.
What is Softr?
Softr's AI App Builder generates the database, roles, workflows and frontend from one prompt.
Softr is a no-code app builder that has spent the autumn building its own database and AI hooks. On 10 November it launched an AI App Builder: a user describes the app, and Softr generates the database, user roles and permissions, workflows, integrations and a fully custom frontend. It follows October's Migrate from Airtable flow, record grouping, credit usage history, in-app notifications and official connectors in Claude and ChatGPT.

Twake Drive
5.0COLLAB
Twake Drive's AI assistant now works inside OnlyOffice spreadsheets, charts included.
◆ Current state
Twake Drive's 1.109 beta cycle continues: beta.2 brings the OnlyOffice AI assistant to spreadsheets, where it reads selected cells and writes answers or charts in place, and improves its handling of code, tables and footnotes in text documents. It also redesigns the share modal with a separate public access block. Beta.3 suggests groups alongside contacts when sharing and fixes several shared-drive bugs.
◆ Where it's heading
Twake Drive is building out two areas at once: the file picker and sharing for apps, and an AI assistant inside documents that was optional in 1.108. Each beta mixes new features with fixes to the sharing changes before it.
◆ Prediction
Expect more 1.109 betas with sharing fixes, then a stable 1.109 release.
Softr
7.5COLLAB
Softr's AI App Builder generates the database, roles, workflows and frontend from one prompt.
◆ Current state
Softr is a no-code app builder that has spent the autumn building its own database and AI hooks. On 10 November it launched an AI App Builder: a user describes the app, and Softr generates the database, user roles and permissions, workflows, integrations and a fully custom frontend. It follows October's Migrate from Airtable flow, record grouping, credit usage history, in-app notifications and official connectors in Claude and ChatGPT.
◆ Where it's heading
Softr is moving from assembling apps out of blocks on someone else's data to generating whole systems on its own stack. The Airtable migration put the data in Softr Database, and the AI builder now produces everything above it, including a frontend that is no longer limited to preset blocks. The September MCP drops and October connectors point the same way: Softr apps that AI tools can build and use.
◆ Prediction
Follow-up releases are likely to let users edit the generated app with prompts and to tie AI building to workflow credits; the single entry gives no detail on pricing or limits.
