About Securely deploy vibe-coded apps in one governed platform. Build in Retool, import from tools like Claude Code, Replit, or Lovable, or connect via MCP. However your team builds, every app ships safely, with governance built in. People across your organization are already vibe-coding internal tools with no SSO, no RBAC, no audit logs, and no connection to your existing data controls. Retool is where secure vibe coding happens by default. Build from scratch, import an app from another AI builder, or connect an agent via MCP — governance lives in the platform, not in each individual app.		About Solar is a fast, flexible AI-powered platform that enables users to build custom AI agents, workflow automations, and full-stack applications, from Python backends and databases to modern front-ends and authentication, in seconds via a visual editor and collaborative canvas. It combines the power of code with no-code readability, offering integrations for email, scraping, LLM calls, tables, file storage, logic, and more, all deployable with a single click. Solar supports robust enterprise features including role-based access control, guardrails, and bring-your-own-cloud options, ensuring secure and scalable deployments. Backed by engineering expertise from renowned companies like Y Combinator, Palantir, and Jane Street, Solar caters to users ranging from solo engineers to collaborative teams by offering a generous free tier (500 credits and up to five projects), with paid plans unlocking advanced integrations, higher usage credits, team collaboration, and enterprise-grade security.
