About ToolJet

ToolJet's AI builder goes model-agnostic with a multi-model catalog and MCP server baked into the enterprise image.

ToolJet has shifted its core narrative from low-code app builder to AI-powered app builder. In the past two weeks alone: MCP server packaging bundled into the EE production image, a multi-model build system with a visual model picker and effort variants, and AI build notifications wired into the canvas. The beta branch (v3.21.x) is a steady feed of component-level improvements while the LTS branch (v3.20.x) is now absorbing the AI infrastructure.
