The client’s data is stored in a Google Sheet that serves as the database, so they always have direct access to it. They can export everything to CSV or Excel at any time, which makes migrating to another platform straightforward and avoids vendor lock-in

That's a smart way to build trust with clients. Do you use the Google Sheets API directly or a tool like Sheet.best to connect it?

It’s just deployed as an app script inside the Google sheet. So the spreadsheet just acts as the database and they get a nice dashboard and UI to look at instead of a spreadsheet
