Mendix

Mendix is an enterprise low-code application development platform that enables businesses to build web and mobile applications rapidly. It provides visual development tools, a marketplace for reusable components, extensive integration capabilities, and supports AI-assisted development and flexible deployment options.

Mendix is a low-code application development platform that aligns very closely with Retool's core offering. The website explicitly mentions and details features such as API & Database Integrations ('Integrate without frustration, Connect to data, applications, and third-party services with out-of-the-box connectors, or use SOAP, SQL, REST, OData, and more.'), Drag-and-Drop UI Builder (implied by 'low-code' and visual development, and 'Mendix Studio Pro IDE features the tools and resources developers need to work comfortably and efficiently'), Code Customization ('Extensibility' and 'open, and extensible platform'), Access Control & Security ('robust security', 'Governance by design', 'Security Model', 'Runtime Security', 'Cloud Security', and 'IDP Integration'), and Flexible Deployments ('Complete cloud choice', 'single-click deployment to any cloud', and various deployment options like Mendix Cloud, Private Cloud, etc.). Beyond the must-have features, Mendix also offers Debugging & Monitoring ('Application Monitoring', 'Ops Dashboard'), Version Control Integration ('It’s really one complete package from version control to the development environment'), Audit Logs & Analytics ('Audit Logs & Analytics' is not explicitly mentioned but 'Governance by design' and 'Investment Control' imply monitoring and control), Workflow Automation ('Workflow' and 'Elevate Process Automation'), Mobile-Responsive Support ('Mobile Application Development', 'Native mobile applications and PWAs'), Prebuilt React Components (implied by 'Widgets', 'Modules', 'Templates' in the Marketplace), AI-Generated App Assistant ('AI-powered development', 'AI-assisted development', 'Mendix AI Assistance (MAIA)'), Custom Theming & Branding (implied by 'tailor functionality to specific experiences'), and Partner & Customer Portals ('Customer and employee portals', 'secure, white-labeled portals for vendors, contractors, or customers with fine-grained resource permissions'). The breadth and depth of features directly match the Retool concept.
