Glide

Finish this sentence: No code has _______________.

🧠 Glide AI 'Image to Text' now uses GPT-4o. This more powerful model provides users with more contextually relevant and detailed answers about the content in their images, and enables more nuanced prompts. Try it out by using prompts like: - "Describe the image." - "Extract the table out of this quote document." - "... reply with JSON only. No other formatting." Or more complex prompts like: "You are writing a status update to your manager about the progress on this job. Use the 2 images provided to make a bulleted list report." Do you use Image to Text in your apps? How will you enhance your prompts?

Add more AI models to Glide through the new Replicate integration. Plug in your Replicate API key and use a whole suite of different text, audio, image, and video AI models right in Glide. You can add Replicate to your Glide apps from the data editor. Which AI models are you most excited to combine with your apps?

In case you were wondering: Yes. Yesterday's Wordle was about us 😆

“I know what I want to do, and I can just build it myself. I don't need to tell a software engineer what to build." Marc Walford, Head of FinOps at ITV, started with Glide to build a tool to simplify their massive cloud migration project. This tool became a catalyst for him to build Financial Operations software on Glide, that has helped reduce their cloud spend in 2023, and lowered time-to-market by 3 months. ITV was ingesting Cloud cost data into BigQuery and surfacing it in Looker Studio dashboards. Those dashboards were fine, but they were read-only, very high-level, and AWS only. The end user could filter views but couldn’t interact with the configuration, change it, or add their own data. “What I like about Glide is that it puts your data into a really nice configurable user interface and makes it more intuitive to people,” he said. “It caters really nicely to user-generated data, which we have a lot of.” When Marc looked into FinOps software, he wasn’t satisfied with the available options. “The commercial construct for FinOps tools is a bit mad because they typically charge a percentage of cloud spend. That just doesn't work in the long run, especially if you've got a big cloud spend like we do." While many companies tend to try to build their own tooling around FinOps, having their data already in Glide from their initial cloud migration project and an easily reusable application framework made creating their FinOps tool in Glide an obvious choice. All they had to do was connect their existing cost data and integrations to a new interface—the ITV “Application Portfolio Manager” tool was born. “That's why I've stuck with Glide, because you can deliver value really, really quickly.” Learn more about Marc's innovative streak at ITV on our website.
