ToolJet – Build internal tools using AI

What it does

ToolJet helps you build enterprise apps, AI agents and workflows in minutes, not months. Create secure internal apps that are enterprise ready and SOC2, GDPR and ISO compliant.

ToolJet builds the whole thing - screens, queries against your data, the logic between them, and the permissions that govern it. Describe the tool in plain English, or drive ToolJet from your coding agent. Either path writes the same application - the same pages, queries, events, and permissions. ToolJet AI turns a sentence into a working draft - real components bound to real queries, ready to refine on the canvas. Install the ToolJet plugin in your coding agent and build from where you already work. It runs as the developer who connected it, with exactly their permissions. 100+ native connectors, plus any REST or gRPC endpoint. Or skip the connection entirely: every workspace includes…from tooljet.ai

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hi HN, founder here again! I first launched ToolJet here in 2021 as a one-person project. It blew up really well & got 1k stars on GitHub (https://github.com/ToolJet/ToolJet/) in around 8 hours. Back then ToolJet was basically a frontend builder that could connect to different data sources.…

  I got laid off from Meta and created a minor hit on Steam▲1,581

  I was at FB/Meta from late 2013 to early 2023, mostly working in the compiler/runtime spaces. I got hit in the spring 2023 layoff wave. I immediately started making games in my newfound free time (a lifelong interest, and I even worked in AA(A?) back ca. ~2000), and in October 2023 I stumbled upon the idea of a roguelike pachinko/plinko game inspired by Luck Be A Landlord. Things snowballed quickly, I started talking to publishers, then worked like crazy through all of 2024, almost the hardest I've ever worked in my career, and launched the game in December 2024. It's sold…

  I built an app to stop me doomscrolling by touching grass▲1,203

  i wanted to change the habit of reaching for my phone in the morning and doomscrolling away an hour so i built an app to help me. now i have to literally touch grass before accessing my most distracting apps the app is built in swiftui, uses the screen time apis provided by apple and google vision to recognise grass or not i'd love to get your thoughts on the concept.
