Let’s Supercharge Your Spreadsheets

Our Mission

AppSheet Advisor is here for every kind of AppSheet user, from first-time builders to experienced developers pushing it to its limits. Our belief is simple. AppSheet is a no-code platform built to empower business users. That means you should be able to do it yourself, without relying on a developer. If it feels like you need one, something isn’t right.

We exist to help you do just that. Our mission is to put you in control, help you learn faster, and give you the confidence to build apps that do exactly what you need them to. We don’t build them for you. We help you build them yourself.

About The Founder

AppSheet Advisor was created by Doug Burns, a business leader and software engineer with experience ranging from small companies to some of the biggest names in business. Most recently, Doug spent more than a decade at HBO, where he helped launch and scale HBO GO, HBO Now, and HBO Max. As Director of Software Engineering, he led large teams, guided business strategy, and oversaw systems that processed millions of dollars in transactions every day.

Soon after leaving HBO, Doug discovered AppSheet, and something immediately clicked. It was the perfect solution to problems he had seen for years: manual processes, spreadsheets stretched far beyond their limits, and “frankenstein” jumbles of off-the-shelf tools that never seemed to work quite right.

AppSheet was different. It was intuitive, and it gave the power to build directly to the people who needed it, on their own timeline. And better yet, for the millions of companies already using Google Workspace, it was available at no extra cost, avoiding yet another line item on the ever-growing SaaS budget.

That realization is what inspired Doug to create AppSheet Advisor. To help others avoid the same struggles and unlock the full potential of this powerful tool for themselves.
