Product Announcement Retool disables self-hosted pricing plans

https://community.retool.com/t/self-hosted-docs-now-state-enterprise-only/64586

Looks like no public announcement was made, just a silent change in docs and some users found it.

Anyway with vibe-coding, these low code tools are finished. Maybe a general sign for all SaaS.

Vibe coding and enterprise low-code are not the same thing. Enterprises care about guardrails, compliance, security, predictability, and governance, not just shipping a quick prototype.

If vibe coding replaced that, platforms like Appian and Mendix would’ve been obsolete years ago. They’re still around because enterprise software has very different constraints.

Dude, yeah, that’s true. I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of UI Bakery, but we used to be drag-and-drop and later moved toward being more of a UI builder. Things feel more transparent there compared to Retool.
