About The fastest way to integrate APIs and run code. Pipedream is a serverless integration and compute platform that makes it easy to connect apps and develop event-driven workflows. Event sources turn any API into a real-time event stream. Create event sources to listen for new Tweets, Github events, Airtable records, RSS items, webhook events and more. Inspect events in a human-friendly way, trigger Node.js workflows on every event, or consume events in your own app via API. Workflows are composed of Node.js code steps that run on every event. Write your own Node.js (and use any npm package) or reuse actions that scaffold popular APIs. Trigger via sources or a custom URL, email address, SDK code or schedule. Auth apps once, connect to those apps in any workflow. Pipedream supports OAuth and key-based auth, and handles the OAuth flow and token refresh for you. Just link accounts to steps and reference the relevant auth info in code.		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.
