Vika

Vika (维格表) is a Chinese API-first spreadsheet-database platform that combines the ease of spreadsheets with structured data and AI capabilities for teams.

Overview

Vika (formerly APITable’s sibling product 维格表) blends spreadsheet usability with database structure: rich field types, views, dashboards and automation on top of data that remains fully accessible through APIs. Its AI features assist with content generation, field filling and data organization, while the platform’s open API-first architecture makes it popular with Chinese engineering teams building internal tools.

Vika supports forms, kanban and calendar views, cross-table relationships, and automation flows triggered by data changes. It integrates with enterprise collaboration tools like DingTalk, WeChat Work and Feishu, and can be deployed privately for data-sensitive organizations.

Vika’s database model supports rich field types, cross-table relationships and multiple views — grid, kanban, gallery, calendar, gantt and form — over the same data. Automation rules trigger on data changes to route work, send notifications and call APIs, while dashboards aggregate key metrics. The platform’s open APIs and webhook support make it a popular backend for lightweight internal tools in Chinese engineering teams, and private deployment addresses data security requirements.
