The short version

  • Only Volnyn has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Noloco pricing follows user counts, and a client portal is by definition many low-activity users, so an agency with a few hundred client logins climbs the bands quickly for people who sign in twice a month.; Volnyn website creation sits on Pro Max, not the entry paid tier, so the feature most buyers arrive for is on the second plan up.
  • They diverge on capability: Noloco covers Row-level permissions, Volnyn covers AI website builder.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 15 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Noloco

  • Pricing follows user counts, and a client portal is by definition many low-activity users, so an agency with a few hundred client logins climbs the bands quickly for people who sign in twice a month.
  • Limits are inherited from the data source. Airtable record ceilings, API rate limits and slow queries appear in the portal your customers use, and no setting inside Noloco can fix them.
  • Design control is deliberately narrow. You get a consistent application shell rather than a bespoke interface, which is fine for operations and a problem for anything marketing-led.
  • It is a small vendor competing directly with Airtable Interfaces and Softr, both far larger, so roadmap pace and long-term viability are legitimate procurement questions.
  • Output is responsive web only, with no native mobile application and no offline mode, so field staff on poor connections are not served by it.

Volnyn

  • Website creation sits on Pro Max, not the entry paid tier, so the feature most buyers arrive for is on the second plan up.
  • Everything is metered from one credit balance, which makes the monthly cost a function of usage rather than a number you can budget. A few AI videos at 100 credits each consume a meaningful share of a Pro allowance.
  • Prices are published in UAE dirhams only, so buyers elsewhere carry the conversion and any card fees on top.
  • The product surface is unusually broad for its size, spanning site building, apps, documents, media generation, browser automation, a freelancer marketplace, a property portal and games. Depth in any one of those is harder to assume than it would be for a focused tool.
  • No founders, leadership or company history are published, and the stated address is a large shared office building, so there is little to verify the operation behind the product against.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Noloco: Do I need Airtable to use it?

No. Airtable is the most common source but PostgreSQL, MySQL, Google Sheets, HubSpot and built-in Noloco tables all work.

Volnyn: Is Volnyn free?

There is a free plan, and it is gated by credits rather than by time. Chat costs 5 credits a message, an AI image 50 and an AI video 100, so the free tier is usable for evaluation rather than for running a site.

Source
Noloco: Can external clients log in without paying for seats?

Client and internal users are counted differently, but they are still counted, so a portal with many client logins moves you up the plan bands. Check the current band definitions before committing to a per-client model.

Volnyn: What does Volnyn cost?

Pro is AED 33.05 a month or AED 27.43 billed yearly for 5,000 monthly credits. Pro Max is AED 55.09 monthly or AED 45.72 yearly for 7,000 credits and adds AI website creation. Enterprise is AED 146.86 monthly or AED 121.90 yearly for 9,000 credits.

Source
Noloco: How is this different from Softr?

Both build portals over existing data. Noloco leans harder on permissions and multiple database sources; Softr leans on templates, speed to a first version and a bigger ecosystem.

Volnyn: Which plan do I need to build a website?

Pro Max. AI website creation is listed on that tier at 10 credits per website, so the cheapest paid plan does not include the site builder itself.

Source
Volnyn: How do Volnyn credits work?

One balance covers everything. Credits arrive monthly with your plan, roll over if unused, and can be topped up on demand. Each action has a published cost: 5 credits a chat message, 50 an image, 100 a video, 10 a website.

Source
Volnyn: Can Volnyn build mobile apps?

Yes, it lists an app builder covering iOS and Android alongside the website builder, drawing on the same credit balance.

Source
Volnyn: What is the Volnyn browser agent?

A Chrome extension published as Volnyn AI Browser Agent that drives a browser to carry out tasks on your behalf, separate from the site builder.
