Build apps however you want. natively with Retool or with Claude Code, Codex, or any coding agent and ship it in a secure governed environment. Security lives in the platform, not in each app. So however it was built, it's governed the moment it ships. It's why teams at Amazon, Stripe, and Brex build on Retool.
