Postico

What it is for

Postico is a native Mac Postgres desk (Postico 2): you run the macos_version CTE, read the 9-row grid, and Personal is $69 (up to 3 devices). Use it when the job is a Postgres query you start at a public $, not when you need TablePlus’s $99 multi-engine client first.

Soft-note: Personal $69 + Student $29 + Commercial $99/device + Team $799 (≤10 devices) + free evaluation. Distinct from TablePlus, DBeaver, and Beekeeper Studio.

What makes it unique: the cover is Postico’s official SQL + grid (Postico Backoffice / postgres, macosVersion CTE, Execute Statement, Result 1 / 9 rows) from eggerapps.at/postico2/query-light.png — not a wordmark. The macos_version grid itself is ops of the query.

Key features

• SQL editor — numbered query + Execute Statement (cover still; product). One desk. Cover macos_version sits here.
• Results grid — macos_version / curr / prev columns, 9 rows (cover). A grid, not a Personal tile.
• Query History — the cover tab sits beside Execute (cover). History, not a $69 meter.
• Sidebar trees — Queries / Tables (Functions) (cover). A tree, not Get started.
• Postgres-family servers — PostgreSQL, Amazon Redshift, CockroachDB, Greenplum, and others (product). A family, not Enterprise.
• Export — Export… on the result status bar (cover). Export, not SSO.

Download / Buy are CTAs (not desks). Personal / Student / Commercial $ stay in Pricing. There is no AI extra to drop.

Who it's for

Best fit: Mac developers on macOS 14+ who will pay Personal $69 once for up to 3 devices while they run a first macos_version query — then Commercial at $99/device when work pays, not TablePlus Basic $99 first unless they need MySQL / multi-engine beyond Postgres-family.

Limitations / costs

• Evaluation disables paid features. There is no forever Free SKU — eval is for evaluation only.
• macOS 14+. Older Macs use older Postico builds, not this 2.x floor.
• Postgres-family only (PostgreSQL / Redshift / CockroachDB / Greenplum / others on the homepage). Not MySQL / MongoDB. For a multi-engine client see TablePlus.
• The product is not OSS. The site mentions GitHub Issues for support; we omit a product-repo CTA rather than invent source.

Alternatives

• TablePlus — a native SQL client when you want Basic $99 multi-engine (incl. MySQL), not Postico’s Postgres-family Mac grid.
• DBeaver — a universal DB tool when you want Community free cross-platform, not a $69 Mac license.
• Beekeeper Studio — a cross-platform SQL client when you want Community free / Indie $9, not Postico 2 Personal.
