Overview
A closer look at Database Designer
Describe your domain and get a normalized schema, ER diagram and safe migrations for Postgres, MySQL or SQLite. Under the hood it combines multi-model reasoning with a dedicated context window for your repository, so results reflect the way your team actually writes code — not a generic public dataset.
Every run is executed in an isolated, ephemeral workspace. Source is encrypted in transit and at rest, discarded after the run, and never used to train shared models. Teams in fintech, health and government use Database Designer in production with SSO, SCIM and full audit logs.
You pay only for the runs you actually execute — 12 credits per run, billed against your team balance. No seats, no minimum commitment, and you can pause any time.
