Database Client and ER Diagram for Mac.

Azimutt is an MIT-licensed schema visualization tool with a free tier and paid plans from €7/mo (Solo). It's web-based with self-host via Docker. It's not a database client; queries and edits aren't its focus. TablePro is a full database client with built-in ER diagrams. The two solve different problems and run side by side.

Decision

Which one is right for you?

you need a real database client to query, edit, and manage data, plus ER diagrams for moderate schemas.

Choose Azimutt if...

you architect very large schemas and want a diagram-first workflow with schema-as-code.

Verdict

Azimutt visualizes huge schemas. TablePro works with data day to day. Most teams want both.

FAQ

Common questions.

Does TablePro replace Azimutt?

For most teams, yes. TablePro's ER diagrams cover schemas up to a few hundred tables. For 1000+ tables with tag-based exploration, Azimutt remains stronger.

Can TablePro do schema-as-code?

Not yet. Schema lives in your database. Migrations are managed by your migration tool.

Does TablePro have AI for diagrams?

TablePro's AI focuses on SQL: writing, explaining, optimizing queries. It doesn't generate diagrams from prose.

Is TablePro free like Azimutt?

Yes. AGPLv3 open source.

Can I use both?

Yes. They don't conflict and read different parts of your database.
