Looking for a TablePlus alternative?
QueryDeck is a native macOS database client built with Swift, supporting PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, and MongoDB. $79 one-time, all your Macs, no subscription. Here's why developers are switching from TablePlus.
TablePlus is the right call when:
- You also work on Windows or Linux. TablePlus is cross-platform; QueryDeck is macOS-only.
- You want a mature native client with broad database coverage, built-in LLM Chat, MCP, and a native diagram without caring about ORM-aware project workflows.
- You want years of public refinement: TablePlus has been shipping since 2018; QueryDeck launched in 2026.
Reviewed 2026-10-05 · Pricing pulled from TablePlus's public pricing page.
Basic plan is $99 for a single Mac. Standard plan is $129 for two Macs.
Updates included for 1 year only, then $59/device to renew.
TablePlus now has LLM Chat, an MCP server, Codex CLI support, and a native diagram, so QueryDeck's differentiation is not 'has AI/diagram vs does not'.
TablePlus does not document QueryDeck-style typed ORM schema parsing or an ORM-code-vs-live-database Drift Mode.
Its query editor is script/tab based; QueryDeck adds SQL notebooks that combine SQL, Markdown, and saved results as one document.
$79 Lifetime launch offer for one user across all their Macs instead of licensing by device.
CLI auto-detects Drizzle, Prisma, TypeORM, Knex, Django, ActiveRecord, and Sequelize projects.
Drift Mode compares five supported ORM schema formats against the connected live database.
SQL notebooks combine queries, Markdown, and results in one exportable document.
Visual EXPLAIN ANALYZE to spot slow queries.
