Current development features · Public download coming soon

YOUR FIRST FEW MINUTES

Start with a question.

Free opens without a paid key. New Windows users receive an automatic 40-day Pro trial; no email or activation code is needed for that local trial.

01 · Choose a connection

Open Connect to use a saved profile or add a database. You can also open the fictional SQLite example below without using business data.

02 · Browse and query

Open a table, explore filters and save a useful view. Create a query tab, choose columns and run SQL when you are ready.

03 · Follow the result

Switch to Chart/Graph, inspect a record or ask Cove about selected context. Review proposed changes before applying them.

MEET HARBOUR & FIELD SUPPLY

A proper dataset
to explore.

Our fictional home-and-office supplier has named customers, recognisable products and linked orders, line items and payments across several months.

100 customers. Plenty of questions.

Which cities return most often? Which product categories are growing? How does an order connect to its customer and payment? The dataset behind these screenshots gives you something meaningful to investigate.

TRY A FIRST QUERY

SELECT city, COUNT(*) AS customers

GROUP BY city

WATCH. TRY. RETURN TO YOUR QUERY.

Learning has its own tab.

Open Learn in the app to browse tutorials when a catalogue is available. Search by topic or filter by database, then open a video in a dedicated workspace tab.

Watch alongside your work

Play supported YouTube videos inside SQL Ocean and return to your query without losing your place.

Open on YouTube

If a creator blocks embedded playback, use the optional YouTube fallback. Internet access is required to play videos.

A growing catalogue

Available tutorials depend on the published catalogue. Saved catalogue entries can remain visible while offline; video playback still needs a connection.
