UI Bakery is a low-code platform for building internal tools and web applications with drag-and-drop components, database connections, and workflow automation.
About
UI Bakery is a low-code application development platform designed for building internal tools, admin panels, dashboards, and web applications without extensive coding. By combining a visual drag-and-drop interface with database connectivity, REST API integrations, and workflow automation, UI Bakery enables development and operations teams to build and deploy functional business applications efficiently.
The application builder in UI Bakery provides a component-based canvas where teams assemble interfaces from a library of pre-built widgets. Available components include tables with sorting, filtering, and pagination, forms with validation, charts and data visualizations, buttons, inputs, dropdowns, date pickers, modals, and many others. Components are configured through a properties panel that controls appearance, behavior, and data bindings.
Data source connectivity in UI Bakery covers relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, SQLite), cloud databases (BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift), NoSQL databases (MongoDB, Firebase), REST and GraphQL APIs, and SaaS integrations. Database queries are written in SQL with autocomplete support, and the results are automatically available for binding to components. The visual REST API configurator handles authentication, request building, and response mapping for external API connections.
The workflow system enables automating multi-step processes that combine data operations, API calls, conditional logic, and user interactions. Workflows are triggered by user actions, scheduled timers, or incoming webhooks, and execute a sequence of actions such as creating records, updating databases, sending emails, and calling external services.
Environments in UI Bakery support separate development, staging, and production configurations, allowing teams to test applications safely before releasing to production. Environment-specific data sources and variables ensure that development and production environments use the appropriate backend systems.
Access control in UI Bakery enables configuring application-level and resource-level permissions, restricting access to specific screens, actions, and data based on user roles. SSO integration with Google, GitHub, and SAML providers is available for teams using enterprise identity management.
UI Bakery can be self-hosted on Docker for organizations that need to keep application data within their own infrastructure, and a managed cloud version is available for teams that prefer a hosted service.
Positioning
UI Bakery is a low-code platform for building internal tools and business applications that connect to databases, APIs, and third-party services. The platform provides a visual builder with pre-built components, role-based access control, and workflow automation — targeting operations, support, and engineering teams that need functional internal apps without dedicated frontend development resources.
Founded in Kyiv and operating through the challenges of building a tech company in Ukraine, UI Bakery has grown to serve thousands of teams by focusing on practical simplicity. The platform avoids over-engineering in favor of fast time-to-value, letting teams go from database connection to deployed internal tool in under an hour.
What You Get
- Visual App Builder

Customer Support Tools
Dashboards combining user data from multiple sources into unified views for support and success teams
Approval Workflows
Multi-step approval processes with notifications, conditional routing, and audit trails for operational processes
Data Dashboards
Real-time reporting dashboards pulling metrics from databases and APIs with charts and KPI widgets
Why It Matters
Internal tools are essential but unglamorous — every company needs admin panels, data dashboards, and approval workflows, but building them from scratch diverts engineering resources from product development. UI Bakery makes these tools buildable by the people who need them most, with enough technical depth to handle real business logic.
The self-hosting option addresses the legitimate concern that internal tools often handle sensitive customer and operational data. Running UI Bakery on your own infrastructure means internal tools benefit from low-code speed without sending business data through third-party systems.
