FileMaker is still a thing. I don't know their internal financials, but they've steadily improved the product over the years. https://www.claris.com

Or if you want to go super-niche, Panorama is still around, and (they say) the longest-running Mac software developer apart from Microsoft. https://www.provue.com

Either one makes it easy to build a database+interface.

I had a distant memory about this Mac based spreadsheet/database thing but could not remember its name (Panorama). Couldn't surface it in searches either. Thought about it the other week and here we are!

Odd pricing though = pay in advance credits. Ummm, not something I'd like to use for work when I'm in the middle of an important analysis with a deadline and I (inevitably) run out of credits and have to start faffing about with in-app purchases. Maybe its not that bad and I'm being unfair.

When I read your comment, I thought the credits system sounded like it was going to be complicated or messy and involving usage. Turns out that they're just trying to make a potentially more affordable subscription model that automatically accounts for times when you're not using the software.

Each credit allows a month of use. Seems pretty straightforward, but I agree with you that because these aren't an auto-renewing subscription you could find yourself needing to pay at an unexpected time.
