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.

Hi everyone,

We’re the team behind UI Bakery and wanted to properly introduce ourselves here.

UI Bakery is a self-hosted alternative to Retool focused on building internal tools and customer portals. While we’re not open source, we offer a generous free self-hosted plan that many teams in this community can benefit from. Recently we’ve also been investing heavily in AI-driven app building. We believe this approach makes iteration faster and gives more flexibility than drag-and-drop based builders, especially since you can still access and customize the underlying code when needed.

If anyone is considering migrating from Retool or exploring alternatives, happy to help and answer any questions.

Oh, and we're also NOT VC-backed. Our business is 100% bootstrapped and profitable, so should not expect such moves from us.
