Forge Database Manager

Stop paying for four tools. Forge opens SQL servers, cloud warehouses, NoSQL clusters, federated query engines, file dumps, and key/value stores in one native app — no Electron, no subscriptions.

Built with SwiftUI for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. One purchase, every Apple device.

NINETEEN DATABASE ENGINES • PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB — full read/write with inline cell editing • CockroachDB, TimescaleDB, Amazon Redshift — wire-compatible, zero extra setup • SQLite + libSQL — local files, full CRUD • Microsoft SQL Server, Azure SQL — TDS protocol in pure Swift over NIO + NIOSSL • Oracle — pure Swift NIO. No Instant Client, no SQL*Plus, no JDBC • Snowflake — SQL API v2 with key-pair JWT auth. No drivers, no ODBC • Google BigQuery — serverless cloud warehouse, service account JWT • Trino / Presto — federated queries across Hive, MySQL, Postgres • Turso — remote libSQL over Hrana HTTPS, bearer-token auth • Apache Cassandra, ScyllaDB — CQL v4 over NIO • DuckDB — embedded analytics. Query Parquet / CSV / JSON via SQL • Redis — browse keys by type (string, hash, list, set, sorted set) like a table • ClickHouse — analytics queries via native HTTP • Elasticsearch — indexes browse like SQL tables

THREE FILE FORMATS AS DATABASES • CSV — auto-detected separators, quoted fields, duplicate headers handled • JSON, NDJSON, JSON Lines — arrays and streaming • SQL Dump — open mysqldump or pg_dump files and browse without executing a statement

DRY RESTORE — UNIQUE TO FORGE Inspect any SQL dump as if it were a live database. Memory-mapped lazy parsing with a cross-session cache. Browse a 400 MB backup in seconds. No risk, no server, no restore.

AI BRIDGE — UNIQUE TO FORGE Run a local MCP server that exposes your databases as tools to Claude Desktop, Cursor, Continue, Cline, and any AI assistant. List tables, inspect schemas, run queries — in plain English, on every supported engine. Read-only by default. Credentials never leave your Mac.

UNIVERSAL BACKUP Scheduled backups for every engine: SQL dump for SQL databases, JSON for Redis (types and TTL preserved). Cron expressions, retention, streaming gzip, "Backup Now" one-shot. Runs in the background on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

EDIT IN PLACE Double-click a cell to edit. Save many cells across rows in one transaction. Schema-aware INSERT and DELETE. Duplicate row with one click. Import CSV/JSON straight into a SQL table via a 4-step wizard. Every SQL engine, Oracle included.

SMART DATA GRID Click headers to sort. Type to filter. Export results as CSV, JSON, or SQL INSERT. Right-click any cell to copy values or rows as JSON. Works on every engine.

TABLE INSPECTOR A side pane shows the selected table's columns, types, primary key, foreign keys, and indexes — without leaving the data browser. Toggle on demand.

SCHEMA COMPARE Diff tables and columns between two connections. Catch drift before it bites in production.

SSH TUNNEL Reach databases behind a bastion host. Password or private-key auth (ed25519, RSA, with passphrase). Pure Swift, no openssh dependency. Works on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

PORTABLE & SECURE Export connections as a single encrypted bundle (ChaCha20-Poly1305 + PBKDF2-SHA256), import elsewhere with a passphrase. Drag a .sqlite/.csv/.json/.sql.gz file onto the sidebar to open it. Passwords in Apple Keychain. SSL/TLS for remote connections. No telemetry, no cloud dependency.

LIVE DATA WITH DIFF HIGHLIGHT Toggle auto-refresh on any table to watch data change in real time. Forge re-runs your query every 5 seconds, 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, or 5 minutes — new rows light up green, changed cells light up yellow. Pauses automatically when you're editing.

Twenty-two data sources. One app. Zero Electron.
