Yes – Galaxy offers the familiar pgAdmin-style desktop SQL editor but layers in a context-aware AI copilot, lightning-fast performance, and built-in collaboration.
pgAdmin is rock-solid for basic PostgreSQL management, but it lacks modern AI assistance, cross-database support, and team-ready sharing. Developers who want to write SQL faster, stay in flow, and reduce repetitive data requests often outgrow classic tools.
Galaxy is a next-generation SQL IDE built for engineers. It keeps the familiar tabbed editor you know from pgAdmin but adds an AI copilot, versioning, and fine-grained permissions-all in a sleek desktop app (with an optional web client).
Instead of generic chat prompts, Galaxy reads your live schema and query history, then:
Speed: Galaxy’s Rust-backed engine opens large result sets in milliseconds.
AI: Context-aware copilot vs. none in pgAdmin.
Collaboration: Share, endorse, and version queries without pasting into Slack.
Multi-DB: Work across PostgreSQL, Snowflake, MySQL, and more in one interface.
Security: Local query execution, encrypted credentials, and SOC 2 roadmap.
Galaxy connects to PostgreSQL, Snowflake, MySQL, and other popular engines. GitHub, Slack, and Notion integrations come standard, with webhooks and dbt sync arriving in 2025.
Yes. The Free tier includes 100 AI completions and 5 saved queries. Paid plans unlock unlimited history, multiplayer roles, and higher AI limits. See Galaxy pricing for details.
Join the open beta, connect your database in minutes, and let the copilot generate your first query. Step-by-step setup is available in the Galaxy documentation.
