In the meeting, the State Changers discussed the potential of using NAC, an alternative to Airtable that has been around since 2012 or 2013 but remained somewhat obscure until its recent acquisition by Resurgence. Following the acquisition, NAC has doubled its development staff and now has a marketing team. The participants noted that NAC, unlike other similar software, avoids per-user-based pricing, offering even unlimited user packages.
The discussion revealed NAC as a robust platform with comprehensive built-in features, including the ability to build portals with different user levels, contributing to flexible data access. Interestingly, NAC also provides HIPAA options. The State Changers recognized the rising prominence of NAC, predicting that it would become more prevalent in social media channels and the public sphere in general in the upcoming years. Key terms that surfaced in the discussion were Airtable, Resurgence, and Retool.
