ToolJet vs Hatchet
A side-by-side editorial comparison of ToolJet and Hatchet — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
ToolJet vs Hatchet: at a glance
What is ToolJet?
ToolJet tags 3.21 as LTS, carrying the beta line's widget and token work to stable.
ToolJet runs an LTS track and a faster beta track. 3.20 LTS releases changed first-run onboarding to an auto-started trial and AI prompt and locked released versions against API edits. On November 13 the 3.21 line got its first LTS tag, v3.21.96-lts, which brings the beta's pagination events, workspace-wide token revocation, progress-widget bindings and widget stability fixes to stable installs along with the 3.20 LTS changes.
What is Hatchet?
Hatchet chases DAG crash loops through three engine patches in a day.
Hatchet added sandboxes, Labs switches and cloud MFA in early November. The week since has been engine reliability: v0.120.3 batches DAG step triggers, v0.120.4 fixes stranded match rows and prunes database partitions before locking, and v0.120.5 removes another cause of DAG crash loops. Python SDK 1.46.0 makes it easier to unit-test tasks and passes failures to cleanup dependencies.

ToolJet
5.0INFRA · APIS
ToolJet tags 3.21 as LTS, carrying the beta line's widget and token work to stable.
◆ Current state
ToolJet runs an LTS track and a faster beta track. 3.20 LTS releases changed first-run onboarding to an auto-started trial and AI prompt and locked released versions against API edits. On November 13 the 3.21 line got its first LTS tag, v3.21.96-lts, which brings the beta's pagination events, workspace-wide token revocation, progress-widget bindings and widget stability fixes to stable installs along with the 3.20 LTS changes.
◆ Where it's heading
The 3.21 line is graduating from beta to LTS after weeks of security scoping, database-pool fixes and widget stability drops. Stable users now get the same admin controls the beta shipped, which narrows the gap between the two tracks.
◆ Prediction
Expect 3.20 LTS releases to taper while 3.21 LTS patches carry fixes, and a 3.22 beta line to open for the next AI Builder work.
Hatchet
6.3INFRA · APIS
Hatchet chases DAG crash loops through three engine patches in a day.
◆ Current state
Hatchet added sandboxes, Labs switches and cloud MFA in early November. The week since has been engine reliability: v0.120.3 batches DAG step triggers, v0.120.4 fixes stranded match rows and prunes database partitions before locking, and v0.120.5 removes another cause of DAG crash loops. Python SDK 1.46.0 makes it easier to unit-test tasks and passes failures to cleanup dependencies.
◆ Where it's heading
After a burst of features, Hatchet is tuning the engine under load: fewer locks, batched triggers and crash-loop fixes. The SDKs are getting testing and correctness work to match.
◆ Prediction
Expect more v0.120.x patches on DAG handling, then a sandbox package out of release candidate.
