About Grist
Grist is an open-source data management tool that blends the familiar interface of a spreadsheet with the structure of a relational database. It lets teams build custom data applications, complete with linked tables, formula columns, and filtered views, without needing to write code or hire a developer.
For businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets but aren’t ready for a full custom database, Grist fills the gap. Using n8n, we connect Grist to the other systems your team relies on, whether that’s pulling form submissions into Grist tables, syncing Grist records with your CRM, or pushing Grist data into reporting dashboards.
Osher helps Australian businesses turn Grist into the backbone of their automated data processing workflows. If you’re managing complex data in Google Sheets and hitting the limits of what a spreadsheet can do, Grist with proper integrations is often the right next step.

How it works
We work hand-in-hand with you to implement Grist
As Grist consultants we work with you hand in hand build more efficient and effective operations. Here’s how we will work with you to automate your business and integrate Grist with integrate and automate 800+ tools.
Step 1
Review Your Current Data Setup
We examine the spreadsheets, databases, or manual processes you’re currently using. This includes understanding what data you collect, how tables relate to each other, and what reporting or automation you need from the data.
Step 2
Design the Grist Table Structure
Based on your data requirements, we design a proper relational table structure in Grist. This means defining reference columns between tables, setting up formula fields, and creating filtered views that match how your team actually works with the data.
Step 3
Migrate Existing Data
We import your existing data from spreadsheets or other sources into the new Grist tables. This includes cleaning up inconsistencies, deduplicating records, and verifying that all relationships between tables are intact after migration.
Step 4
Build n8n Integrations
Using the Grist n8n node, we connect Grist to your other business tools. This might include pulling new form responses into Grist, syncing records with your CRM, or pushing summarised data to a reporting dashboard on a schedule.
Step 5
Test and Validate
We run through real-world scenarios using your actual data to make sure everything works as expected. This covers testing integrations, verifying formula calculations, and checking that views and filters return the correct results.
Step 6
Hand Over and Train
We deploy the final setup, provide documentation on the table structure and integrations, and run a training session with your team. Grist is designed to be manageable by non-technical users, so your team should be self-sufficient quickly.
