Visual DB

Build Forms, Sheets & Reports on Your Database

Visit Visual DB

Visual DB is a web-based tool that allows non-technical users to build database applications visually. It provides drag-and-drop form builders, spreadsheet-like sheets, interactive reports, and BI dashboards that query the database directly. It supports major relational databases (MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, Oracle, SQL Server, SQLite) and cloud databases (Neon, Azure SQL, Amazon RDS, Google Cloud SQL, AlloyDB). Users can manage database schemas, import/export CSV data, and use AI to generate SQL or create tables from plain English descriptions. The tool can be self-hosted on an intranet for data security (e.g., HIPAA compliance). Pricing starts with a free plan (up to 4 users, 10,000 records) and a Business plan at $5/user/month (5-user minimum, 100,000 records displayed, unlimited records in database).
