Why this score
Usable, but the measured score sits in the middle band. Budget for someone technical. Captured 2026-10-15. Unmeasured signals add nothing and are not treated as failures.
Alive14/20
- Last push. 8 points. GitHub pushed_at was 0 days before 2026-10-15.
- Releases in 12 months. 6 points. The public releases feed shows at least 10 tagged releases in the last 12 months.
- How fast issues close. Not measured. Median issue-close time is not in the seed snapshot, so this signal is omitted.
Trusted6.3/20
- OpenSSF Scorecard. 4.3 points. OpenSSF Scorecard 6.2 out of 10.
- Open critical or high vulnerabilities. Not measured. Open vulnerability counts were not fetched. We do not assume zero.
- Contributors in 90 days. Not measured. 90-day contributor counts were not fetched.
- Bus factor. Not measured. Contributor share was not fetched.
- Stars. 2 points. 41,066 stars, log-scaled and capped at 20,000.
Takeoverable13.8/25
- Licence. 10 points. Licence class permissive.
- Stack. 3.8 points. TypeScript. TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Go, PHP, and Vue score as widely hireable.
- Tests and CI. Not measured. We did not confirm a test suite. Missing CI at the usual paths is treated as unknown, not as a failure.
- Docs quality. Not measured. Docs quality is an LLM rubric. v1 does not invent that score.
- Data export. Not measured. Data-export was not audited app by app, so it is omitted.
Easy to run9/20
- One-click deploy. Not measured. No one-click host was verified for this app, so the signal is omitted rather than scored as a failure.
- Managed cloud or done-for-you. 5 points. SeatLess offers done-for-you setup. A vendor cloud, where listed, is the vendor’s own hosting, not a licence you own.
- Docker Compose. 4 points. A Dockerfile or Compose file is in the repository.
- Memory needs. Not measured. Memory needs were not measured.
- Setup steps. Not measured. Setup-step rubric was not run.
Feature fit15/15
- Coverage of the incumbent’s main jobs. 15 points. Editorial reading of public docs. Not a certified feature audit. Unknown jobs are left out of the average.
What it replaces
Appsmith builds admin panels and internal tools against the databases and APIs you already have. GitHub reports Apache-2.0. It is a Retool neighbour, not a Zapier neighbour.
Feature coverage vs Retool
Editorial, from public descriptions. A dash means we did not assess that job. This is not a lab test, and Retool has not reviewed it.
