Hey, I'm Danilo, founder of TurboSQL, and I’m super excited to launch our first version!
If you've ever felt frustrated with sluggish, clunky SQL clients — you're not alone. As a developer, I was tired of the lag, the mouse-heavy workflows, and the general feeling of fighting with my tools instead of working with them.
That's why I built TurboSQL — a blazing-fast, keyboard-first SQL desktop app, designed to get out of your way and keep you in flow.
⚡️ Lightning Fast No more waiting around — queries run with near-zero delay.
⌨️ Keyboard-First Design Every action is shortcut-ready, so you stay in your zone without reaching for the mouse.
🧠 AI Powered Generate and explain queries from plain English, and enjoy schema-aware autocompletion that's actually helpful.
🔒 Local-First & Secure No sneaky data collection. Your data stays yours — always.
TurboSQL is built on Tauri for native performance and supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MariaDB out of the box. It's currently available for Mac, with other platforms coming soon!
TurboSQL's answer:
Anyone that uses databases on a daily or weekly basis, and want to have a good user experience with them.
TurboSQL's answer:
I always used other desktop tools to connect to my DBs and run queries. However, most of those felt like they were built decades ago and have a TON of room for improvement UX-wise. Also they had no AI features in them. So most of the times, after a slow experience getting in, I would copy my query, paste on ChatGPT and ask for changes. So I decided to make all of this better.
TurboSQL's answer:
Tauri for the desktop app, Next.js for the landing page/dashboard, Clerk for auth and Polar for payments.
TurboSQL's answer:
If you want a SQL editor that looks good, was designed to be fast and support keyboard-first movement, plus has AI deeply integrated that knows your database schema for in-context answers, choose TurboSQL.
