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
Retool supports different AI resource configurations for each plan:
- Free
- Team
- Business
- Enterprise
Organizations on the Free plan can use Retool-provided models for app building, and are not required to configure an AI resource.
Admins configure their AI model provider through AI resources. A selection of models from OpenAI and Anthropic are provided for use with a Retool-managed key.
Admins must ensure that all user groups that will be building have access to the relevant AI resources. Learn more about permission configuration.
Cloud-hosted organizations on the Team plan can also use Retool-provided models with no configuration required.

- 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.
- You can choose to use Retool-managed keys for OpenAI or Anthropic, or use your own keys for any model.
- If you bring your own key for OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google Gemini, you can route requests through an AI proxy instead of calling the provider directly.
The following diagram outlines your different options for configuring AI resources.
Custom AI providers are not supported in apps. Use one of the dedicated provider resources instead.
Supported models
Retool requires a tightly-scoped set of models in order for agentic app building to be reliable. Effort levels for each model are set to high.
The following models are supported for building apps because they support streaming, tool calls, reasoning and thinking, and multimodal inputs.
- Retool
- OpenAI
- Anthropic
- Google Vertex AI
- Amazon Bedrock
- Azure OpenAI
Retool Mini and Retool Power are open-source models that Retool provides for building apps. They require no AI resource configuration and are in public beta.

Azure OpenAI provides access to OpenAI models deployed in your own Azure workspace. All models require you to bring your own key and are available on the Enterprise plan. To use an Azure deployment when building apps, name it to match the model's OpenAI ID (for example, name a GPT-5 deployment gpt-5). Deployments with other names don't appear as app-building models.
