No-Code App Builder

The first enterprise AppGen platform that turns natural language into production-ready internal apps—built on your live data and deployed in your environment. Secure from day one.

This is the 14th launch from Retool. View more

Retool

Launched this week

Build anywhere. Govern in Retool.

Describe what you want and get a production-ready app, not a prototype. Build natively or bring in apps that you've vibe coded elsewhere, then deploy into Retool to inherit auth, audit logs, and more automatically. Build from anywhere, govern in one place.

Hey Product Hunt! Keanan here from the Retool team. Last time we were here, we shipped enterprise AppGen, which let you build Retool apps from natural language. Today, there are so many tools that can turn a prompt into a working prototype, but very few that can go all the way to deployed, enterprise-grade software. We’ve closed the gap between “I have an idea” and “I have a piece of software that solves that problem,” but there’s still the gap of how to deploy that software to your team, in your business, safely and securely. So we’re excited to announce two big things today: - An AI-first building experience in Retool, recreated from the ground up. Retool now has a brand new building experience, built for a world where AI is the primary author: faster, more expressive, and yours to read, extend, and own. Describe what you want and get a full, production-ready app that’s ready to deploy in your environment, on top of your data, secure by default. - Build from anywhere. Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Lovable, your own codebase — Retool works with all of it. Build wherever you want using our brand new MCP, deploy into Retool in one step, and pick up enterprise-grade governance automatically. And the part that ties it together is the governance that’s been built into the Retool platform from the beginning. Security shouldn't live inside the app or anywhere that’s been built by AI. It should live underneath it. Permissions are attached to your data and enforced by the platform, not configured by whoever (or whatever) wrote the code. That matters because the LLM that generated your app also generated its security logic and that's not a foundation you can trust. When the platform handles security, you can build faster and with confidence. Bring over your existing Retool apps when you’re ready, import anything you’ve already vibecoded in React, or build something new in the brand new builder or using the MCP. This works on every Retool plan, from Free to Enterprise, whether you’re hosting in Retool’s cloud or self-hosted. Try it free at retool.com/build-anywhere and get free app imports through July 1, plus bonus AI credits on every paid plan. We'll be in the comments all day, so tag us and show us what you’ve built (or where other vibe coding tools got in your way at the very end).

Excited to hunt Retool today. AI can generate code. Turning that code into secure, production-ready software is the real challenge. That's what impressed me about Retool's latest launch. You can build with tools like Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or your own codebase, then deploy directly into Retool with governance, permissions, and infrastructure already handled. The gap between "I have an idea" and "I have software my team can trust" just got a lot smaller. Congrats to Keanan and the Retool team on the launch. Would love to hear what the PH community thinks

Hey! Congrats!

The "build anywhere, deploy in Retool" approach is something that grabbed my attention.

A lot of teams are experimenting with Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools, but productionizing those projects is still a major bottleneck.

This feels like a practical bridge between AI-assisted development and real-world deployment. Congrats to the Retool team on the launch!

@byalexai Thank you so much! You've nailed exactly the gap we're trying to close!

@byalexai Thank you! I'm pretty frequently using Claude Code to start and iterate on ideas, research datasets, etc and it's so nice to be able to, at the end of that process, push everything into Retool and not worry about how I'm going to give my team access to all that work.

Thanks for the support!

Most AI app builders stop at generating code.

Retool seems to be solving the harder problem: getting from an idea to software that can actually be deployed, governed, and trusted inside a company.

Curious how many teams here are already using AI-generated apps in production today? 👀

@suryansh_tiwari2 That's exactly the problem we're aimed it. Our customers routinely use AI to shortcut creation time without short-changing governance. Not only have we re-architected our app builder from the ground up, with today's launch, anyone can cross that massive “deployed in production” gap by starting in the same tools they've been building prototypes with (e.g. Claude, Cursor, Lovable) and using the Retool platform for governed access to enterprise data.
