Your Product Requirements database at a glance

This template gives your product team a single, reliable hub to manage specifications, features, and task assignments. Keep your product specs connected directly to active sprint tasks so engineers always have the full context.

Five dedicated tables for Users, Products, PRDs, Feature Requests, and Sprint Backlogs work together natively. Every document relates to a broader product module, and every sprint task points back to its source specification.

Equipped with database AI agents, this database drafts executive summaries of your PRDs, outlines technical requirements, and writes acceptance criteria automatically.

What to check before building your product requirements base in Airtable

When managing a complex product lifecycle, choosing where your data lives is a critical decision. While Airtable provides a relational structure, scaling a product team on it often leads to unexpected bottlenecks.

What changes with a database built for apps

Instead of paying per-seat fees just so developers and designers can view specifications, you can work with unlimited collaborators under flat-rate structures. Highly active product teams also avoid the fast-approaching API and record limit caps of older database tools.

This is exactly what Softr Databases are built for. You get the same powerful relational foundations, coupled with built-in tools to display, automate, and protect your data.

What you can do with this template

Directly link your high-level product modules to authors and technical specs. Your engineering team can move feature requests into development while referencing the original PRD lookup fields in one click.

Because database AI agents run inside columns, you can automatically convert rough feature descriptions into standardized acceptance criteria as tasks move onto the sprint backlog.
