# SnoutData **SnoutData is one AI-driven IDE for every database.** Connect to relational, document, and vector databases, query them with SQL, a native pipeline, or plain language, and work with the results, with an AI assistant that understands your schema. It is a standalone desktop app for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Your connections and credentials stay on your machine, encrypted by your operating system's keychain.  ## What you can do - **Connect** to relational databases (MySQL/Aurora, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle, IBM Db2, SQLite, DuckDB, Snowflake, Amazon Redshift, SAP HANA), document databases (MongoDB), and vector databases (Pinecone). See [supported databases](https://docs.snoutdata.com/connections/drivers). - **Query any database with SQL.** SQL is the common language: on MongoDB and Pinecone, SnoutData transcribes your SQL to a native aggregation pipeline or vector query. See [querying beyond SQL](https://docs.snoutdata.com/databases/overview). - **Or go native.** Write a MongoDB aggregation pipeline directly in the editor when you want the full power of the database. - **Write SQL** in a multi-tab editor with schema-aware completion and hover, on top of a live index of your tables, columns, fields, and foreign keys. - **Run queries** and explore results in a fast data grid with filtering, ordering, and cell editing. On MongoDB you can also edit documents and manage collections and indexes. - **Ask the AI assistant** for queries in plain language. It is grounded in your connection's schema, so it references real tables and columns (or collections and fields), and proposes SQL or a native pipeline straight into the editor. - **Stay safe in production**: connections can be flagged as production, with a guardrail that catches destructive statements before they run. ## Get started 1.
