Love how the most empowered users on Retool are engineers.

Question about Workflows -- how does it compare to a tool like Apache Airflow?

Thanks! Workflows and Airflow are similar in that they can both be used for ETL tasks and we do see customers use Workflows as an easier to use replacement for Airflow. Airflow is specialized for heavyweight ETL so it's a better fit for that whereas if you're interested in doing non-ETL tasks like alerts and APIs in addition to ETL, Workflows would be a great choice.
