Why this score
The licence is source-available. You can read the code, but it is not an OSI open-source licence. Captured 2026-10-15. Unmeasured signals add nothing and are not treated as failures.
Alive14/20
- Last push. 8 points. GitHub pushed_at was 0 days before 2026-10-15.
- Releases in 12 months. 6 points. The public releases feed shows at least 10 tagged releases in the last 12 months.
- How fast issues close. Not measured. Median issue-close time is not in the seed snapshot, so this signal is omitted.
Trusted6.3/20
- OpenSSF Scorecard. 4.3 points. OpenSSF Scorecard 6.1 out of 10.
- Open critical or high vulnerabilities. Not measured. Open vulnerability counts were not fetched. We do not assume zero.
- Contributors in 90 days. Not measured. 90-day contributor counts were not fetched.
- Bus factor. Not measured. Contributor share was not fetched.
- Stars. 2 points. 65,278 stars, log-scaled and capped at 20,000.
Takeoverable5.8/25
- Licence. 2 points. Licence class source available.
- Stack. 3.8 points. TypeScript. TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Go, PHP, and Vue score as widely hireable.
- Tests and CI. Not measured. We did not confirm a test suite. Missing CI at the usual paths is treated as unknown, not as a failure.
- Docs quality. Not measured. Docs quality is an LLM rubric. v1 does not invent that score.
- Data export. Not measured. Data-export was not audited app by app, so it is omitted.
Easy to run5/20
- One-click deploy. Not measured. No one-click host was verified for this app, so the signal is omitted rather than scored as a failure.
- Managed cloud or done-for-you. 5 points. SeatLess offers done-for-you setup. A vendor cloud, where listed, is the vendor’s own hosting, not a licence you own.
- Docker Compose. Not measured. No Dockerfile or Compose file at the usual paths. It may still exist elsewhere, so this is omitted.
- Memory needs. Not measured. Memory needs were not measured.
- Setup steps. Not measured. Setup-step rubric was not run.
Feature fit15/15
- Coverage of the incumbent’s main jobs. 15 points. Editorial reading of public docs. Not a certified feature audit. Unknown jobs are left out of the average.
What it replaces
NocoDB turns a database into a spreadsheet-style workspace, which is the Airtable-shaped job. As of the licence file updated 29 Jan 2026, the master and develop branches are under the Sustainable Use License, not an OSI licence. Caution.
Feature coverage vs Airtable
Editorial, from public descriptions. A dash means we did not assess that job. This is not a lab test, and Airtable has not reviewed it.
