Rationale
Port is an internal developer portal solution that allows users to build a software catalog, enable developer self-service actions, and automate workflows. It explicitly mentions 'Integrations' for connecting to various data sources (APIs, Git, CI/CD, Cloud Providers, etc.), an 'Interface designer' and 'Dashboards' for UI building, and 'Workflow automations' for business logic. 'Access control' and 'Role-based access control' are also clearly stated. While not explicitly 'low-code' in the same way as Retool, it emphasizes building a portal 'without any coding' and 'quickly defining your data model', suggesting a visual or configuration-based approach. The 'AI Agents' feature aligns with AI-Generated App Assistant. Custom theming and branding are supported through 'Customize developer experiences' and 'Build views that match the way developers and managers work, with the right themes and layouts'.
