Build external-facing apps with Retool

Retool has launched "Retool for External Apps," a new solution designed for building and managing apps for users outside an organization, now available on Business and Enterprise plans. This platform extension allows businesses to create customizable, secure, full-stack portals for external users such as customers, vendors, and partners, with features like built-in login, authentication, access controls, and audit logs. Users can whitelabel the interface and customize user journeys, including sign-in and account management processes, while leveraging Retool's granular, role-based permissions model to ensure data security. The platform also supports embedding Retool apps in existing dashboards, SaaS tools, or web apps, and offers user-based pricing tiers that scale with the number of external users, providing cost predictability as businesses grow.
