Retool is a low-code development platform purpose-built for creating internal business tools. Rather than building admin panels, dashboards, and operational tools from scratch, developers use Retool's 100+ pre-built UI components and connect them directly to virtually any data source.
The platform supports direct connections to PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, REST APIs, GraphQL, Google Sheets, Stripe, Twilio, Slack, and dozens more. Custom JavaScript and Python can be added anywhere for complex business logic.
Retool offers both cloud-hosted and self-hosted deployment options. The free tier supports up to 5 users. Team pricing starts at $10/user/month. The platform also includes Retool Workflows for backend automation and Retool Mobile for native mobile apps.
