Last day @infolabUK today! It’s been an amazing and rewarding 6,5 years where I learned a ton and met many great people! I’m taking a few days off and then on to a new challenge
.
Some amazing use cases so far from a relatively tiny private beta, now accessible to all!
💫Free for teams up to 5 💫
Retool Mobile: Ship iOS and Android apps, no mobile expertise required
Over the last few months, I've discovered that developers don't have a useful term to describe productivity-focused custom software, built for a small(ish) audience of specialized users. I wanted to change that (🧵 with blog link to follow)
Today, we’re launching a big upgrade to our startup program—now, early-stage teams get $25K in credits in their first year! Build unlimited web apps, mobile apps, and automations to help extend runway and find product-market fit faster! Get your credits: http://retool.com/startups
Introducing the Command Palette: a faster way to search and navigate to everything you need in Retool. Instead of clicking around the screen, you can run commands from your keyboard to build faster than ever before.
Get started by hitting ⌘/Ctrl + K ⌨️
ChatGPT is so versatile. It's going to be so useful for a lot of peripherals, especially in the data space. I still wouldn't have an AI be central to my data stack but you can easily have it generate dummy data or small code snippets
Save the date for our next Product Workshop, Designing intuitive apps in Retool: 12/9 @ 9:30am PT

Workflows aims to abstract away the tedious parts of building automations from scratch while preserving the ability to write code to solve the problem."
Introducing Retool Workflows: automate cron jobs, custom alerts, or ETL tasks without provisioning infra, authenticating resources, or combing through API docs.
Now in beta! 🧵
workflows makes it easy for devs to create cron jobs, custom alerts, & ETL. What I love about this? It's fully integrated in the Retool platform. Meaning you can now easily add a backend to yr apps!
Throwback to my last conference a year ago today at @tableau conference 2019 at the datadev hackathon. @lainecaruzca@andre347_ where my cowgirls and cowboys at?
Equals is the fastest way for startups to do any analysis.
Today I'm thrilled to announce that we've raised a $16M Series A led by @a16z and @kshenster.
Plus: @heyequals is now FREE for founders, analysts, and early operators to use.
And we're hiring across the board.

that was really helpful. Then I thought, wow this could be a company.”
This is about to be the story of a lot of companies (already is for 2 that I know)
seems to strike a pretty good balance.
- Self hostable
- Internal only (limited reqs for complexity/validation/etc)
- Actually fast for prototyping.
Legitimate low code product!
Awesome to see the huge turnout at tonight’s Retool UK Meetup. Great to catchup with a bunch of UK based developers who all built their internal tools on
, I’m hacking on a little app to run a game of Dungeons & Dragons (the classic tabletop role-playing game). Care to follow along, and learn a bit about state management in a Retool app? 🧵
editor to make it faster to diagnose errors and build complex apps. You can now:
- Analyze stack trace (Console)
- Visualize runtime sequence (Timeline)
- Inspect properties/dependancies (State)
we celebrated 'RTO' (return to office) with the whole team. That week also (almost) marked the end of the 'Summer of Retool'. A little thread of all the good things that have been announced over the Summer 👇
