DISPATCH 22 · FRANKFURT Darragh McKay, CEO and founder, Noloco
FRANKFURT — At No-Code Week, Noloco's founder traces an arc from 2021 to today: five years of building internal tools on top of other people's data. Along the way, the word "no-code" started to fray at the edges.
On the ground with Darragh McKay founded Noloco in 2021 after working as a software engineer at HubSpot and a Dublin startup. He saw small and mid-sized teams drowning in spreadsheets and disconnected SaaS tools, unable to assemble the systems they actually needed. Noloco gives them an interface layer on top of existing databases — Airtable, Postgres, MySQL, Google Sheets — without writing code.
