Audit trail

Schema updates and key events are recorded with consistent, human-readable change summaries.

Why Polydesk?

Spreadsheets are easy to start and hard to govern. Polydesk keeps the flexibility, adds structure, and makes changes safe.

Draft schema changes

Edit fields freely in a draft. Publish when you're ready. Schema evolution is explicit and reviewable.

Typed fields and constraints

Types and constraints give you enough structure to trust the data without slowing you down.

Audit trail by default

Track key events about your data and schema.

Rules and tasks

Polydesk is not just a place to store data. It can drive work. Rules let you react to data changes and create tasks for the right people — without building a custom app.

Trigger on data events

Create lightweight rules for when a row is created, updated, or deleted.

Examples: “New repair order created”, “Invoice marked unpaid”, “Work order closed”.

Assign tasks to people

A rule can notify a user, request a form submission, or send something for review.

Tasks live in a simple inbox, so work does not get lost in email threads.

Close the loop

For form requests, users can submit the requested record directly from the task and it completes automatically.

This turns your dataset into a lightweight operational system, not just a table.

AI assistant and analysis

Polydesk's assistant is designed for the next step after importing data: asking questions, spotting issues, and generating useful outputs. The assistant works on top of your data structure, not against it.

Ask questions in plain language

“What changed this week?” “Which customers have overdue invoices?” “Show outliers in temperature readings.”

Automated checks and anomaly detection

Flag missing required values, unexpected spikes, duplicates, and schema violations before they become problems.

Generate summaries and reports

Produce clean summaries, suggested next actions, and export-ready tables without manual spreadsheet work.
