“Why did revenue drop in August?”

−12.4%
You write five more queries, paste results into a spreadsheet, and guess.

SMB annual plans cancelled after the price change drove 71% of the drop.

  • ✓ 6 queries · 3 hypotheses tested

Sound familiar?

Great at running queries. Silent on what they mean.

DB clients were built to execute SQL. The hard part — deciding which query to run next — is still on you.

01

A stakeholder asks “why?” and you spend the afternoon writing throwaway joins.

02

You paste your schema into a chat window and hope the SQL it writes is right.

03

Everyone calculates “revenue” or “active customer” slightly differently.

04

One tool for SQL, another for charts, another for AI, a spreadsheet for the answer.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Can it replace my current database client?

For day-to-day browsing, querying and exporting on the supported databases, yes. Some advanced features you may rely on — like SSH tunnels — aren’t in the beta yet, so many people keep their old client alongside while they try it.

Does my data leave my computer?

Your data stays local. When you use Ask, schema details and your question go to the AI provider you configured. Result rows are not sent in follow-ups. Use Ollama to keep everything on-device.

Can the AI change my data?

No. AI-generated queries are bounded reads. Writes only happen from the SQL editor, after you review them.

Do I need my own AI key?

Yes — OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, or a local model through Ollama. The rest of the client works without one.

How much does it cost?

Every download starts a 14-day free trial with no account. After that, a one-time license unlocks everything — no subscription. AI usage is billed by your own provider, and rowwise shows the estimated cost before each investigation.

Which platforms are supported?

macOS and Windows.
