Buyer questions
Questions buyers actually ask
What makes our AI approach different from other development tools?
We built it into a complete platform, not just a code generator. It understands your data schemas, security policies, and business logic—creating solutions that work within your existing infrastructure from day one.
How does Retool ensure enterprise security with AI?
All AI-generated apps and workflows automatically inherit enterprise security (SSO, RBAC, compliance) plus your team's trusted building blocks—proven queries, components, and workflows that already power your business. You control what data is shared with models and maintain full audit trails.
What are AI credits?
Every Retool plan includes a monthly pool of AI credits—no add-on, no separate billing. Credits are shared across your organization and cover all app building and AI actions.
How can I deploy Retool? Can I self-host Retool?
Retool runs in the cloud or self-hosted in your own VPC. Self-hosted setup takes about 15 minutes via Docker. If your data can't leave your infrastructure, self-hosting is the answer. Enterprise plans support both options.
