DB Pilot is a database GUI client and SQL editor that allows users to interact with data using traditional queries and AI assistance. It supports several databases including PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, DuckDB, CockroachDB, and ClickHouse.

The tool is designed for software engineers and analysts. It helps with writing and debugging SQL queries via a natural language AI assistant and provides a block-based notebook interface where users can combine SQL, Python, and charts to build dashboards.

Buyers should note that the application currently supports macOS. While support for Windows and Linux is mentioned as coming soon, it is not yet available. Users can choose between a monthly subscription that covers AI costs or a one-time purchase that requires the use of their own AI API keys.
