About Gallium Technologies
Gallium Technologies is a small Australian outfit. We ship Google Workspace add-ons that do one thing properly, and we take on workflow-automation and data-engineering work that doesn't fit neatly inside an add-on.
The add-on side of the business exists because the Google Workspace Marketplace quietly fails small businesses. Most of the popular options are expensive for what they do, hide their real cost behind tiny free tiers, or bundle telemetry and bloatware into the install. We thought we could do better at the small-team scale, so we started shipping our own.
What we ship
- FormChime sends customised email notifications when a Google Form is submitted. Live on the Marketplace today.
- ApproveKit turns Google Forms into approval workflows without needing a separate workflow tool. Planned next.
- HeyDB lets you ask plain-English questions of your Google Sheets and get the right query in return. Further out on the roadmap.
What we help with
Where the product side covers a few specific Workspace problems, the consulting side of the business covers a much wider scope. The same instinct for structured automation applies whether the toolkit is Google Apps Script or Python, a Sheet or a Snowflake table, a Form or a Databricks job.
- Workflow automation across Google Apps Script and Workspace, including custom add-ons for clients who need something specific the Marketplace does not offer.
- Python data pipelines on AWS, GCP, and Azure. The kind of work that takes a form, a sheet, or an upstream system and turns it into something a warehouse can answer questions from.
- Cloud data warehousing across Snowflake, Databricks, and Microsoft Fabric. Modelling, transformation, and the orchestration that holds everything together.
Most of the projects worth taking on touch more than one of these at once. A Google Form feeding a Snowflake table feeding the analytics the leadership team actually reads. A reconciliation script that started life in Apps Script and ended up as a scheduled Python job on Databricks. The middle is where the interesting work lives, and it is rarely tidy without somebody who has worked both ends.
How we work
The principle is plain. Build add-ons that do one thing properly. Charge a fair price for the version that does more. Treat the user's privacy as a default rather than a setting. Every product is designed to install cleanly and stay out of the way, and to earn whatever OAuth permissions it asks for rather than assume them. The same standard applies to consulting work: ship something the client can actually run, not something that depends on us being on call forever.
Gallium Technologies is led by Uday Kapur, working with a small group of senior specialists who join projects based on scope and stack. The Team page covers who is behind the work in more detail.
If any of this overlaps with something you are trying to land at work, the Support page is the cleanest way to start a conversation. We would rather hear the actual problem you are trying to solve than guess at the brief.
