About UI Bakery

UI Bakery is a low-code platform for building internal tools, admin panels and dashboards. You can generate an app with AI from a description, then adjust it in a visual editor with tables, forms and charts connected to SQL databases, APIs and services, or edit the generated code directly. Each workspace can include a free hosted PostgreSQL database, and apps can be exposed as MCP servers for AI agents. It is often chosen by small engineering teams and agencies as a cheaper, simpler alternative to Retool, with self-hosting available for companies that need data to stay on their infrastructure. Pricing is per developer per month: a free plan with unlimited apps and public users, then Builder and Team plans that add environments, roles, audit logs and AI credits, and an Enterprise tier with a dedicated VM and custom SSO. It runs in the browser. Its component set and community are smaller than Retool's, and some enterprise controls require the top tier.

Best for: Small teams wanting Retool-like tools at a lower per-developer price, hosted or on-premises.
