Overview

FluentDB is a native macOS database client built with SwiftUI that pairs a full-featured SQL editor with an AI co-pilot. Ask questions in plain English and FluentDB generates SQL grounded in your live schema, showing every query for review before it runs. Read-only mode and manual approval prevent destructive UPDATE, DELETE, or DROP statements, while a privacy-first architecture keeps data local and sends only schema metadata to the AI, never row data. Bring your own API key (Claude, OpenAI) or run fully local models via Ollama. PostgreSQL is supported today, with MySQL, SQLite, MongoDB, Redis, and ClickHouse coming soon.

Pricing: Basic: $99 (1 Mac) | Pro: $140 (3 Macs) | Team: $75/seat (min. 3 seats) | includes 1 year of updates
