Gone are the days of searching for the perfect developer to bring your ideas to life. Automatically add interactions and database configuration without any code... or if you’ve already got your API, Adalo can integrate with that. The best makers iterate the fastest. Now you can afford to. After hiring designers and developers, most entrepreneurs don’t have any money left to iterate on their products, so they cross their fingers and hope. With Adalo, you’re in complete control to add, adjust, or even build a new app. Our company is named after Ada Lovelace, widely considered to be the world’s first computer programmer.		About Retool is the AI-native enterprise app development platform where teams build and ship production-ready apps — at AI speed, with enterprise governance built in. Describe what you need and get a working app, import React-based apps from Lovable, Replit, or Claude Code, or connect your AI agent via MCP. However your team builds, every app lands in Retool with RBAC, SSO, audit logging, and your existing permissions already in place. Retool connects to databases, APIs, LLMs, and external tools out of the box. Teams can build AI agents, dashboards, workflows, and full-stack apps — with a visual editor for speed and direct code access for precision. Trusted by over 10,000 organizations including Amazon, Stripe, DoorDash, and OpenAI to get AI-built apps safely to production.

Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros From a no code perspective, they are pretty true to what they state. The interface is good and their "magic text" feature is actually very good as it relates to incorporating complex logic into your app. They have a good marketplace of sample apps to get started and modify. Cons They sometimes lack features that aren't logical for a mobile app. For example, with their native dialog message sharing feature (sending text messages) they send a link to the file but not the actual image file. They also support certain IAP, but they don't have subscriptions completed yet which seems like a miss. Their support and communication with their community seems to be pretty slow or lacking, I've seen a lot of complaints from their community that they aren't listening on product changes requested.		Pros from Real Users Pros For our internal workflows and tooling, we now use retool for everything. It is super easy and quick to get our critical operations workflows built. Excellent support from their team too!
