Introducing enterprise AppGen: Software that starts with a sentence and ends in production

Retool has launched the world's first enterprise application generation platform, AppGen, which enables users to create applications using natural language directly on their data, such as databases and APIs, with built-in security and governance. This platform resolves the longstanding trade-off between the speed of packaged tools and the flexibility of custom code by leveraging generative AI to create relevant, production-ready software that understands enterprise data and security contexts. Retool's AppGen, including its new feature Assist, allows both domain experts and engineers to collaborate on the same platform, enhancing the speed and autonomy of software development while maintaining enterprise-level security and compliance. This democratization of app building empowers non-engineers to solve problems and implement solutions rapidly, transforming how organizations operate by increasing the number of builders and accelerating the delivery of solutions. The platform is designed for scalability, composability, and security, promising to reduce the time needed to move from questions to actionable software solutions.
