Supported AI models
AI models available for use when building apps.
For each thread created in the Chat tab, builders can select which AI model to use to generate and modify their app's code.
Builders must select one AI model family for each thread. They can change models mid-thread, but they cannot change model families.
Supported configurations
Organization admins must configure one or more AI resources before builders can write prompts to create or edit apps. The following list outlines the key points of what Retool supports for AI app building:
- Admins configure their AI model provider through AI resources.
- A selection of models created by OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google Gemini are supported.
- You can also access these models through Google Vertex AI, Amazon Bedrock, and Azure OpenAI platforms if you host one of the models there.
- Admins must ensure that all user groups that will be building have access to the relevant AI resources. Learn more about permission configuration.
- All organizations can use Retool-managed keys for OpenAI and Anthropic. Enterprise plan organizations can use their own keys.
- Users of OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google Gemini that also bring their own key can route use an AI proxy to make calls to LLM providers.
Custom AI providers are not supported in apps. Use one of the dedicated provider resources instead.
The following diagram outlines your different options for configuring AI resources.

Retool requires a tightly-scoped set of models in order for agentic app building to be reliable. The following models are supported for building apps because they support streaming, tool calls, reasoning and thinking, and multimodal inputs.
- OpenAI
- Anthropic
- Google Vertex AI
- Amazon Bedrock
- Azure OpenAI
Organizations on the Free plan cannot access Opus models.
