Looking for a TablePro 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 TablePro.
TablePro is the right call when:
- You need broad engine coverage. TablePro supports 29 databases; QueryDeck intentionally supports four.
- You want a capable database client for $0. TablePro's core app, AI assistant, MCP server, ERD, and production Safe Mode are free.
- You also need an iPad workflow. TablePro ships on iOS; QueryDeck is macOS-only.
- You require a fully open-source tool. QueryDeck stays closed-source.

TablePro can read connection settings from a project .env, but it does not document QueryDeck-style typed ORM auto-detection for Drizzle, Prisma, TypeORM, Django, or Rails schemas.
Its Compare & Sync feature is database-to-database. QueryDeck Drift Mode compares supported ORM schema definitions directly against the connected live database.
TablePro documents query tabs and saved queries, but not SQL + Markdown + result notebooks as a first-class document workflow.
Its 29-engine breadth is a major strength, but it also means the product is intentionally more general-purpose than QueryDeck's four-database, app-project-focused scope.
TablePro is AGPLv3. Normal use at work is explicitly allowed; distribution of modified versions is where AGPL obligations matter.
CLI auto-detects Drizzle, Prisma, TypeORM, Knex, Django, ActiveRecord, and Sequelize projects and reads their connection configuration.
Drift Mode parses five ORM schema formats and compares code against the connected live database.
SQL notebooks: mix SQL, Markdown, and results in one exportable document.
Focused on PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, and MongoDB instead of maximizing engine count.
Closed-source proprietary licensing if your organization specifically prefers that model over AGPLv3.
