Rationale
Knack is a strong match for the Retool concept. It explicitly offers a no-code platform for building custom online databases and applications, which aligns with the core value proposition. It features API & Database Integrations through 'Knack Flows' and its API, a 'Front-End Web Application Designer' with drag-and-drop capabilities, and robust 'User Access' and 'Security & Infrastructure' features including SSO and role-based access control. While it doesn't explicitly mention embedding JavaScript or SQL for custom logic, its 'Workflow' and 'Knack Flows' features suggest a strong automation and data transformation capability. It also offers 'AI Powered App-Building' and 'Custom Branding'.
