About Retool for Startups

What you get

Retool for Startups gives a 100% off coupon for one year, worth up to $60,000, on any monthly Team or Business plan. After the free year you get 25% off your paid plan for the following year. Retool is used to build internal tools, admin panels and dashboards on top of your database and APIs.

Who qualifies

  • Bootstrapped, angel-funded, debt-funded, pre-seed, seed or Series A startups.
  • Raised less than $10 million in total.
  • Founded within the last 10 years.
  • A new customer on the monthly Team or Business plan. Customers that have already been on a paid plan for several billing cycles are not eligible.

Good to know

  • To claim it, you first upgrade to the monthly plan you want, then apply. The discount applies to your first invoice at the end of the first billing cycle.
  • The offer cannot be combined with other sales discounts and cannot be moved to another cloud account or a self-hosted deployment.
  • VCs and accelerators can add Retool to their deal books through Retool's startups team.

Verdict

One of the more generous and open perks: no partner needed and a wide eligibility window. Good if you need internal tools early and want to avoid building admin screens by hand. Because you must already be on a paid monthly plan, start on the plan you actually need, apply straight away, and check that the coupon appears on your first invoice. It suits small teams well.
