Product Overview
See Rowdex in live action
Five jobs you currently split across pgAdmin, Redis Insight, Bull Board, and Compass — handled in one desktop window.
Rowdex · Write SQL across Postgres, Redshift, MySQL, MariaDB, and SQLite
Replaces pgAdmin for daily queries
Write SQL across Postgres, Redshift, MySQL, MariaDB, and SQLite.
You keep losing your place every time pgAdmin reloads or you switch browser tabs. Rowdex gives you a multi-tab SQL editor with schema autocomplete, saved queries, and {{variable}} placeholders — all in one native window.
- Multi-tab editor with schema autocompleteJump between staging and prod queries without reopening connections.
- Saved queries and full historyRe-run yesterday's debug query in two clicks, not ten.
- {{variable}} placeholders in saved queriesSwap user IDs and date ranges without rewriting the whole statement.
- Dangerous SQL confirmationDROP and DELETE without WHERE get blocked until you explicitly confirm.
Features
Built for developers who live in databases
Every card below closes a tab you have open right now — or a mistake you've almost made on prod.
Find last Tuesday's query in seconds
Saved queries, full history, and {{variable}} placeholders mean you stop rewriting the same debug statements. Re-run with a new user ID or date range in two clicks.
Debug failed jobs without Bull Board
See queue depth, pause workers, retry failed jobs, and inspect payloads on the same Redis connection. No separate deploy, no extra login, no context switch.
Skip Redis Insight for daily key lookup
Pattern search, TTL inspection, and an in-app command console sit next to your SQL tabs. Compare a cache value against the Postgres row that wrote it in one window.
Close Compass for routine document work
Browse collections with JSON filters, switch between table and JSON views, and edit documents in-app. Document CRUD without a fourth desktop client open.
Stop exporting CSVs for metrics you already query
Pin any saved SQL as a widget with auto-refresh on interval. Watch signups, queue depth, and error rates from live connection data — not a stale snapshot.
Get SQL drafts that know your schema
Describe what you need in English. Rowdex reads your actual tables, generates read-only SQL, and waits for your confirm before anything runs. Bring your own OpenAI key.
Credentials that never hit a plain-text file
Connection passwords live in the macOS, Windows, or Linux OS keychain — not a config file on disk. One less thing to worry about when you connect to prod.
Details
Thoughtful UI that's easy to use
Small details that save hours every week — each one tied to a job you do daily.
Fix a bad row without writing UPDATE
Click a cell in the result grid and edit it directly — no one-off SQL script required.

Security
Connecting prod shouldn't feel reckless
You're about to point a new desktop app at a live database. That should make you pause — and Rowdex is built so you can connect with confidence, not blind trust.
Credentials never touch a plain-text file
Your fear: passwords sitting in a config file on disk. Rowdex stores connection secrets in the macOS, Windows, or Linux OS keychain — the same vault your OS uses for Wi-Fi passwords.
Read-only mode for connections you don't trust yet
Your fear: one misclick writes to prod. Toggle read-only on any connection and Rowdex blocks INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE before they leave the editor.
Production mode makes danger impossible to miss
Your fear: running a query against prod by accident. Mark a connection as production and Rowdex adds a persistent visual warning layer you can't ignore.
Destructive SQL gets stopped and confirmed
Your fear: a DROP or DELETE without WHERE at 2am. Rowdex intercepts dangerous statements and requires explicit confirmation before anything executes.
AI drafts SQL — you decide if it runs
Your fear: an AI assistant mutating your database. Rowdex generates read-only SQL by default and waits for your confirm. Nothing runs without you.
