Quick Start
Connect to a database, write a query, and ask the AI assistant — in five minutes.
Step 1 — Create a connection
Cmd/Ctrl + N opens the New Connection dialog, or use the sidebar button.
Pick an engine
Choose from the 40+ supported engines. Defaults (port, driver options) fill in automatically.
Fill in credentials
Host, port, username, password. See The Connection Form for every field.
Test before saving
Test verifies the connection without persisting it, so you don't save a broken config.

Step 2 — Browse a table
Double-click a table in the sidebar to open the data grid. Use the visual filter row (column / operator / value) to narrow rows without SQL, and click column headers to sort.

Step 3 — Write a query
Cmd/Ctrl + Q opens a new SQL tab. Click Run to execute (single statement at a time — the editor runs one statement per click).
Toolbar → Explain shows the engine's native plan.
Multi-statement SQL files can be run via the SQL file import wizard (right-click schema → Import → SQL).
Step 4 — Ask the AI
Cmd/Ctrl + I opens the AI panel. Describe what you want in plain language:
"Show me the top 10 customers by revenue last month"
Type @ followed by a table name to pull its schema into context. Click Run under any generated SQL block to execute it, or Copy to editor to tweak first.
