It's a no for me. I don't want a subscription. Charge whatever you need, give us 1y of updates, charge next year for an upgrade. Do not pull folks into yet another subscription.
looks very unified and modern, thank you for the effort
but have 2 question:
1. do you consider a feature as a carrier of dbt and apply to different db
2. is there a way to cross query between db
sorry i know this might went too far
Our goal is to build the best DB client around, and one aspect of that is building trust. We haven't even added user analytics tracking into the product.
Without a doubt, 100%. In fact, you can use it offline if you want. We only make network requests when authorising user accounts. But even then you don't need to create an account. You can just use the free version offline.
Great question! Postgres is supported right away because it behaves like a standard, direct database connection. But with services like Neon and Supabase, there are extra nuances we want to handle properly.
We want Neon, Supabase, and similar cloud providers to feel like first-class citizens inside DB Pro and not just “another Postgres connection”. Each of them has their own quirks, authentication flows, and connection requirements. For example, Supabase actually needs a paid IPv4 add-on if you want to connect to it in the traditional way, which isn’t obvious to most users.
So instead of lumping them in as generic Postgres connections, we’re building dedicated flows that understand these details and make the whole experience seamless. That’s why they’re marked as “coming soon”. We’re doing them properly.
It all goes back to our UX first philosophy to build the absolute best experience.

Hi guys,
Great to see something fresh in this space. Good luck!
We are building something fairly similar but haven't launched yet. Competition will make all of us do a better job.
Agreed! The more competition, the merrier. Good luck to you guys!
How can I trust this tool not to leak my data to third parties?
We just wouldn't do that in a million years.
Our goal is to build the best DB client around, and one aspect of that is building trust. We haven't even added user analytics tracking into the product.
So, if I would connect to a local server on my LAN, my firewall should show zero internet traffic from DB Pro?
Without a doubt, 100%. In fact, you can use it offline if you want. We only make network requests when authorising user accounts. But even then you don't need to create an account. You can just use the free version offline.
Question comes to mind; Why is Postgres supported but neon coming soon?
