Retool AppGen

AI app builder that creates internal tools from a prompt as editable React and TypeScript code.

Overview

Retool is a platform for internal tools, and its AI app builder creates them from a prompt. The builder writes React and TypeScript, can use npm packages, and works against a company’s own databases. Users can view and edit the code, clone apps locally and push changes back with the Retool CLI and Git source control.

Apps run on Retool’s cloud or on the customer’s own servers. Plans are priced per user per month and include AI credits, and enterprise customers can use their own AI keys. Retool’s AI agents are billed by hours worked and can be connected to MCP servers.
