## What it is
An in-browser Postgres sandbox where each database runs locally via PGlite (WASM Postgres) and is paired with an LLM assistant for generating queries, reports, charts, and diagrams. Formerly known as postgres.new, it supports CSV drag-and-drop import and deployment of databases to platforms like Supabase.

## Use cases
- spin up a throwaway postgres database in my browser
- import a csv and query it with sql
- generate sql queries with ai assistance
- create charts and reports from database data
- build database diagrams
- prototype a postgres schema before deploying to supabase

## When to choose
- you want instant, zero-setup Postgres experimentation without a server
- you want an LLM to help write and iterate on SQL
- you need quick CSV analysis or schema prototyping in the browser

## When to avoid
- you need a production database with real concurrent users
- you require server-side Postgres features not available in PGlite/WASM
- you want to work without an OpenAI API key for the AI features
