Retool
Retool is a low-code platform for building internal web and mobile apps with AI-assisted app generation, workflow automation, agents and governance controls. Users describe needs or connect data sources, generate an app, add workflows/agents, and manage access with SSO, audit logs and optional self-hosting or managed cloud.
linked official pages list four tiers: Free, Team, Business, and Enterprise, with per-month prices shown for builders and internal users, included monthly AI credits per tier, free agent hours, and additional paid capacity options.Is Retool right for you?
Good for
- Engineering or ops teams building production-ready internal tools quickly while requiring enterprise controls like SSO, audit logs, and self-hosting.
- AI-native app generation that delivers a production-ready app with enterprise security and governance built in.
- Paid plans support unlimited web and mobile apps, letting you scale app count without per-app fees.
Keep in mind
- Agent runtime and advanced agent capacity are billed separately from the pooled AI credits.
- Buyers who need publicly listed agent runtime hourly rates or a fully itemized billed‑annually price for each numeric line item without contacting support—confirm those details first.
Pricing and plan limits
The linked official pages show per-month numeric lines (e.g. builder and internal user prices) and a Pay annually toggle mentioning 20% savings; the pages do not present an unambiguous billed-annually price for each displayed numeric amount in the capture.
