Tool profile
Agent platform inside Retool for automating operational work with model-driven workers, tool access, observability, and hourly runtime pricing.
Operational AI agents
Retool Agents belongs in the catalog because it turns Retool from an internal-tools builder into a more direct AI labor platform. The official positioning is not just that Retool now has AI features. It is that teams can stand up digital workers, connect them to business tools, monitor them in real time, and pay by runtime instead of abstract token bundles. That makes Retool Agents a real stack choice for companies already using Retool or evaluating how agent workflows should plug into operational systems.
It also deserves inclusion because the commercial model is public and materially different from many AI agent products. Retool includes up to 20 free agent hours per month on its plans, then prices additional capacity by model and runtime. That means the right financial comparison is not only against other agent vendors but also against human workflow costs and existing Retool spend. It is a more honest operational product than many agent launches that hide pricing behind aspiration.
Quick fit
Editorial take
Retool Agents should be framed as an operational workforce layer inside Retool, not as a generic chatbot feature. The most important evaluation questions are runtime economics, tooling depth, and whether the Retool platform context makes deployment easier or more opinionated than the team wants.
