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.

Why Retool is Better than SoftrRetool is better than Softr for complex, developer-supported internal applications that require custom logic and deep system integration. Softr is highly accessible for business teams creating portals, dashboards, and workflow apps without code, particularly from existing data sources. Retool offers a more extensible environment for direct queries, APIs, JavaScript, reusable components, automations, agents, and specialized operational interfaces. It is the stronger option when an application must go beyond standardized blocks and support intricate business rules. See more |
