Retool

Retool's low-code platform leads in internal tool building, achieving $100M+ ARR in 2025 with 14,000+ customers like DoorDash, Amazon, and Brex. Its drag-and-drop UI builder connects directly to SQL databases, REST APIs, and GraphQL endpoints, enabling engineering teams to build admin dashboards in hours rather than weeks—a 90% faster turnaround than traditional development. This performance exceeds Framer's capabilities for custom internal tools, as Retool offers deeper database integration and a 30% reduction in development costs compared to the typical low-code rival. By streamlining complex workflows, Retool remains the top choice for businesses needing robust, data-driven applications.
