Retool Workflows is now generally available

Retool Workflows is a visual automation product designed for engineers, combining the ease of drag-and-drop interfaces with the extensibility of code, allowing users to compose APIs and database queries using JavaScript or Python. It supports complex, production-grade workflows, distinguishing itself from tools like Zapier by being self-hostable and code-first. Since its beta phase, it has been utilized by companies such as Rippling, Stripe, and Taco Bell to automate various processes. Workflows integrates with the broader Retool ecosystem, enabling seamless incorporation of user interfaces and allowing for customizable logic through code. It features developer-friendly tools like mini-REPLs for debugging, time-travel debugging, and supports long-running jobs with the Temporal execution engine. Additionally, Workflows can be augmented with human-in-the-loop steps and are deployable for various use cases, such as alert configurations and internal process automation, exemplified by companies like RE/MAX and EquipmentShare. The product is generally available for both cloud-hosted and on-premise instances, with options to begin building for free and scale according to usage.
