Process and approval applications
Requests, reviews and sign-offs shaped like your process, with thresholds and a decision record.
Business applications
Custom business applications, built by AI and governed by your IT team
The applications your business runs on but no vendor sells: the approval flow shaped like your process, the dashboard for your metrics, the portal for your partners. Describe them and ToolJet builds working apps on your data, with the controls IT already expects. Refine visually; involve engineers only where it counts.

Describe the tool you need. ToolJet builds it.
Type what you want in plain language. ToolJet generates the pages, queries and logic as a working app. Connect your data, set who can see what, and review the generated logic before publishing. Edit the app on the canvas afterwards.
- Working app, not a mockup
- Review access rules before publishing
- Free to start, per-builder pricing

Business applications teams build with ToolJet
Department dashboards
Finance, sales, operations and HR metrics from your warehouse and systems, filtered by owner.
Customer and partner portals
Scoped external views over your data, embeddable and white-labelled.
Planning and intake tools
Project intake, prioritisation, capacity and roadmap boards with scoring and status.
Record and case management
Vendors, assets, contracts, cases, with controlled changes and history.
Automations behind the apps
Self-hosted workflows that run on schedules or events to notify teams and sync between systems.
Roll out business apps one verified process at a time
- 01
Define the first rollout
Choose one department and process. Name the business owner and technical maintainer; list builders, end users, roles, data sources and expected peak usage before choosing a plan.
- 02
Build with representative data
Generate the app with AI or a coding agent, then review its pages, queries and logic. Use test data that covers missing records, invalid inputs and the decisions the team actually makes.
- 03
Verify access and capacity
Test allowed and denied actions for each role, including access to sensitive records. Measure response times under expected concurrent use and check database, API and deployment limits separately from user licensing.
- 04
Release in stages
Start with a pilot group and agreed acceptance criteria. Assign support and change owners, document recovery steps, and expand access after reviewing errors, user feedback and performance.
In production
Teams already running on ToolJet
Built in, not bolted on
The controls your IT team already expects
Review identity, permissions and audit coverage for the selected plan and deployment. Test application-level data access separately; platform assurance reports do not establish application compliance.
Single sign-on and SCIM
SSO is available on Team and Enterprise; SCIM provisioning is an Enterprise capability. Confirm the required provider and group mapping.
Permissions down to the query
Configure app and resource permissions. Enforce sensitive row access in server-side queries, database policies or APIs, and test each role.
Audit coverage and retention
Team includes platform audit logs. Confirm event coverage, retention and export requirements; store business approvals in your connected system.
Runs where you say
Choose managed ToolJet Cloud or self-host in your VPC or on-premise. BYOK is available on Enterprise plans for both Cloud and Self-hosted. Air-gapped operation and private AI gateway deployment are separate Self-hosted Enterprise add-ons.
Security and governance features vary by plan. Workflows and Agent Builder are available on Self-hosted only; BYOK is available on Enterprise plans for both Cloud and Self-hosted. Compare plan availability.
Two ways to get there
Build it yourself, or bring our engineers in
Self-serve
Your team, your pace
Start free. Describe the tool, refine it on the canvas, and ship it under your own access rules. Start with one app, then test it with your team before rolling it out.

Forward-deployed engineers, embedded with your team
When the timeline is fixed or the process is tangled, our engineers build alongside you: scoped delivery, production-ready apps, and knowledge transfer so your team owns the result.
Talk about a projectFrequently asked questions
What counts as a business application?
Any application that runs a business process rather than serving as your product: approvals, dashboards, portals, planning boards, record management. ToolJet builds these on your existing data instead of in a new system.
Is this a low-code platform?
ToolJet started as an open-source low-code builder and now generates full applications from a prompt or a coding agent, with the visual editor for refinement and code where it earns its place. The governance layer is the same either way.
Who builds the apps?
Usually the business team that owns the process, with IT connecting systems and reviewing permissions. Engineers step in for custom logic, components or integrations that do not exist yet.
Can we self-host?
Yes. Deploy with Docker, Kubernetes, Helm or OpenShift in your VPC or on-premise. Fully air-gapped operation requires the Self-hosted Enterprise air-gapped add-on. Managed ToolJet Cloud is also available, and the core is open source.
How is it priced?
Pricing is per builder, not per user. Every plan includes an end-user allowance and Enterprise includes unlimited end users, so rolling a tool out widely does not add a seat for every viewer. The pricing page lists the allowance on each plan.
Does unlimited end-user licensing mean unlimited application capacity?
No. Enterprise includes unlimited end users, but a license allowance is not a concurrency or performance guarantee. Confirm builder seats, app and environment entitlements, storage, support and deployment requirements for your plan. Load-test representative queries and actions against your expected simultaneous usage; database connection pools, external API quotas, network latency and hosting resources still affect capacity. ToolJet Workflows require Self-hosted deployment and have configurable execution limits.
What should we verify before rolling out internal apps across departments?
Agree on measurable acceptance criteria for each process: who can read or change each record, how quickly common actions should complete, and what happens when a connected service fails. Test onboarding and offboarding with your identity setup, review audit coverage and retention, and assign an owner for app changes and production support. Separate app-version rollback from restoring business data. Pilot with representative users before widening access, and include infrastructure, integrations, maintenance and AI usage in the operating-cost estimate.
