If you are looking to explore and understand your database (relational or document), Azimutt is the tool you need. It's the first entity relationship diagram built to handle big database schema (up to 1000 tables) with dedicated features: search, find path and even schema analysis to keep it consistent.
RepDB is a one-time-purchase exercise dataset for developers building fitness and workout apps โ not a subscription, not a rate-limited API. You download the data once and own it: JSON (and SQLite on the higher tier), WebP images, and full EN/DE/ES translations, with no per-request billing and no dependency on our servers staying up.
A free tier includes 400 exercises with flat-style 512ร512 images, attribution-licensed for commercial in-app use. The Starter tier ($199) adds the full catalog in classic white-background style. Standard ($399) adds transparent 1024px images, looping animations, exercise relations (similar/progressions/regressions), workout templates, and embeddings โ exclusive to that tier.
Every exercise includes muscle-group highlighting, equipment/muscle icons, MET values, and safety/goal tags. Compared to GIF- or JPG-based competitor APIs, RepDB images are transparent WebP with no watermarks, so they drop into any app UI without a white box around them.
Azimutt RepDBAzimutt's answer
Azimutt is mainly targeted at developers working with databases, allowing them to easily explore and understand them by either importing the schema or connecting to a live instance.
As it's quite easy to use, we have seen other profile such as product owners, engineering managers and even CFOs using it to better understand the product they build or extract meaningful data on their own ^^
RepDB's answer:
Solo developers and small teams building fitness or workout-tracking apps (iOS, Android, web) who need licensed exercise images and structured exercise data, but don't want to build their own media pipeline or depend on a rate-limited third-party API.
Azimutt's answer
Early 2021 I joined Doctolib, a health startup very successful in France, and discovered their big Ruby on Rails monolith backed by a large PostgreSQL database with more than 700 business tables (more then 1300 in total). As an architect I worked with several teams and needed to understand their models but neither Ruby, Rails or the structure.sql were very helpful for such a big app. So I looked for a tool but they all failed with such a large database, so after a few month and tens of tools tested, I decided to build my own: Azimutt. Now it has evolved a lot and we are still very active to enable new usages every months. I believe it's a solid product and quite unique โค๏ธ
RepDB's answer:
RepDB grew out of a consumer workout app its creator was building solo. Sourcing exercise images and data meant either paying for a subscription API with usage caps and no caching rights, or producing everything from scratch. The illustrated, multi-language dataset was built for us first, then split out as its own product once it became clear other indie developers had the same problem and preferred to buy the data outright rather than rent it through an API.
Azimutt's answer
From development languages, Azimutt is built with Elm/TypeScript for the frontend, Elixir/Phoenix for the backend and PostgreSQL/S3 as storage.
Azimutt's answer
It's the only ERD able to handle databases with many tables (>1000) nicely thanks to unique features:
It's also very unique in the sense it's made to explore and understand real world databases, from development to production with larges features:
Thousands of developers already love it, give it a try, we have several samples you can try right away!
RepDB's answer:
RepDB is sold as a one-time download, not a metered API โ you own the JSON/SQLite data and WebP images outright, with no rate limits, no per-request billing, and no risk of the vendor cutting off access. It's also the only dataset in this space with EN/DE/ES translations, transparent (alpha-channel) images with no watermark, muscle-group highlighting, safety/goal tags, and looping animations on the higher tier.
Azimutt's answer
Azimutt is the all-in-one app to explore real world databases. If you look for very specialized features some competitors may be more suited, but if you want a versatile app to explore and understand your database, we believe no competitor come close to us.
RepDB's answer:
Most alternatives are subscription APIs โ you pay monthly, you're capped on requests, and ExerciseDB's terms of use explicitly forbid caching or storing the data at all, so every image render is a live paid API call. RepDB is the opposite: pay once, download the files, self-host with zero ongoing dependency. It's also the only option offering true DE/ES localization and transparent images instead of a white box behind every exercise.
Azimutt's answer
Azimutt is used at Doctolib (3000 people company) and some other french scale ups I can't disclose yet.

I just want to get a basic overview quickly. An old colleague of mine created an interactive web app that does this. We use it internally and I find it super useful. Supports SQLite, among others: https://azimutt.app/. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

A couple of options here: - From a database. Generate ERD by connecting to your database directly. I've used this as a quick way to generate a diagram from my local or even QA DB (not prod DB for obvious security reasons). - From a schema dump file. Take a pg dump and then generate an ERD from the dump file. There are ERD tools like dbdaddy.dev and azimutt.app that support these options. Source: over 3 years ago
