Airtable alternative to create member directory for your community

We love Airtable too but there's a limit to it's versatility. When you use it to host a member directory for your community, you inevitably run into issues. Especially as your community grows. We created Curated Connections directory tool to solve this problem.


Airtable is a good general purpose tool. How amazing is it that you've been able to create a member directory for your community using it! But if you're reading this, you're probably running into issues with that.

We created our own directory tool to solve exactly those issues. You'll find that this tool solves those problems while giving you the simplicity and aesthetics that your members like.

No back and forth to update info

This is the first problem you run into. One member changes their city and asks you to update their location in the directory. No problem. You open Airtable and make that change for them.

But next day, 2 other members tells you that they would like to update their job status and industry.

That's when it becomes a pain. You would rather have members have the ability to update their info on their own. And guess what, your members would like that too!

If you host your directory on Curated Connections, that's exactly what your members will be able to do.

Support networking with Warm email feature

The central purpose a directory solves is it helps your members find and be found by the right people. What do they do after they find the right person? They want to connect with them!

The only way to support this with an Airtable setup is to expose everyone's email to everyone else - which is a privacy nightmare.

But Curated Connections is designed to foster connections. That's why we added the "Warm Email" button. It allows members to reach out to other members in a permissioned manner.
