In February, we launched ToolJet’s AI app builder, which allowed teams to build internal tools in minutes using natural language. That launch marked a major shift, combining the speed of AI with the flexibility of low-code so teams can move fast without giving up control or customization.
With our summer release, we’re advancing that foundation further by introducing deeper AI capabilities, boosting developer velocity, and strengthening governance and compliance controls for internal tooling.
This release reflects months of feedback from engineering teams and platform leaders to help teams deliver faster, maintain governance, and bring AI into everyday operations.
But why is this a turning point? Despite new tech and approaches, internal tools remain a huge pain point.
What’s under the hood and why it matters?
Internal tooling is still broken!
Building internal tools that truly scale is still a challenge. Enterprises must juggle strict security requirements, shifting business processes, legacy systems, and fragmented daily operations. Introducing AI only adds to the complexity. Most AI platforms generate code rapidly, but they rarely fit into established practices for code management, security, and release workflows.
The result? AI-powered features become difficult to maintain and even harder to scale.
The real-world blockers
These challenges leave most teams stuck between imperfect options:
- Use of code: Teams gain control, but have to build everything from scratch, eventually slowing them down.
- Use low-code: Customization becomes difficult.
- Use AI code generation tools: Speed exists; however, teams are introduced to security and governance risks.
The result? Engineering teams are overwhelmed by a maze of internal tools, scattered vendors, and rising demands to improve business outcomes. Working with such fragmented systems is a nightmare.
That’s why ToolJet 3.16 is built on three core pillars, each designed to tackle the real-world blockers holding teams back.
Here’s what powers ToolJet’s summer release
Pillar 1: Craft delightful developer experiences
ToolJet leverages the best of AI and GUI building to make internal tool development fast, simple, and delightful.
What does this mean for developers?
- Generate apps from natural language using the AI App Builder.
- Reduce repetitive work by creating smaller, reusable parts of applications
- Enforce your design system across all your applications easily by creating centralised design themes
- Build complex interfaces easily with built-in validation and logic, and more customisation properties
- Write custom code faster with smarter auto-complete and inline suggestions
- End debugging nightmares with clear, actionable error tracking and Fix with AI
Don’t settle for clunky or bloated builders. Read this piece to know how ToolJet makes dev work smooth, fast, and fun.
Pillar 2: Adapt ToolJet to your software development lifecycle
ToolJet is designed to fit into teams’ existing software development lifecycle (SDLC) processes so they can manage internal apps just like any other software, without creating shadow workflows or skipping essential governance.
What does this mean for engineering leaders?
- Automate the deployment lifecycle by integrating ToolJet apps into their existing CI/CD pipeline.
- Reduce deployment risks and enforce development standards with granular access control for environment-specific actions like release.

Pillar 3: All-in-one platform for smart internal tools
ToolJet makes it easy to build any kind of internal tool, whether it’s a CRUD app, dashboard, AI chatbots, or automation.
- ToolJet integrates with preferred AI services and vector databases, allowing developers to deploy intelligent features without spinning up additional infrastructure.
- Embed ToolJet apps into existing portals, internal dashboards, or other legacy systems for a seamless end-user experience.
- Reduce manual, tedious processes by easily creating and scheduling automations with our visual workflow builder.
The bigger picture: Scaling with confidence
With our latest summer release, ToolJet delivers 10X faster feature development and a platform built for creating production-ready internal apps that scale with business needs. As internal tooling requirements expand and AI capabilities accelerate, ToolJet helps teams stay ahead with enterprise-grade governance, reliable performance, and a developer-first experience at every stage.
Ready to move faster?
ToolJet is available for both cloud and self-hosted users. Whether organizations are standardizing internal tools or building AI-driven workflows, ToolJet is built to support their next phase of growth.
