ToolJet

AGPL-licensed open-source low-code builder for internal tools, dashboards and, increasingly, AI agent workflows.

Visit ToolJet Alternatives

ToolJet is an open-source app builder for internal tools, dashboards and business applications, connecting via drag-and-drop to databases, cloud storage, GraphQL and REST APIs — a UI layer for existing data rather than an analytics product. The open-source foundation is AGPL-3.0 licensed (changed from GPL-3.0), with a separate commercial license for organizations that want to modify and resell it as a service. Recent releases lean into AI: generating apps from a prompt, and building or extending them from Claude Code, Codex or Cursor over MCP, alongside the original visual builder. It ships as cloud and self-hosted (including air-gapped) editions, with per-builder pricing on the cloud tiers and a flat enterprise minimum.
