Hello friends 👋🐱 I can't believe it's already been over a year since we did our initial Outerbase launch on PH, bookface, and HN. If you haven't heard of us or maybe don't remember, that's ok! Outerbase helps you to navigate your data with AI. and we have spent the past year honing our craft and making the experience even better.
Our goal is to give everyone access to the data they need. So with all of that said, I am excited to announce the all new Outerbase 2.0 🎉 We’ve improved A LOT including:
 ➡️ Redesigned from the ground up to provide an intuitive and powerful experience for your data, including a fully responsive experience (imagine your database in your pocket) ➡️ All new AI Data Studio experience including better conversations with your data using an optimized GPT-4, SQL co-pilot, and AI-powered data visualization ➡️ More database support, we support over 10 different database connections including MySQL and Postgres and we've just added MongoDB and ClickHouse
 ➡️ We have partnered with developers most loved database offerings including
Neon, Turso, and DigitalOcean ➡️ SQL Sandbox, If you don’t have a database you can upload a CSV or start with a blank slate ➡️ Native Mac and Window Apps ➡️ And so much more I can’t even list it all, you'll just have to take my word for it (or check us out 😉) Outerbase is free to use, no credit card required.
So check us out www.outerbase.com and let me know what what you think! Please let me know if you have any questions ❤️

@burcs congrats on the launch! which of the user profiles you mention are your main target? Seems like a tool that different departments need for different reasons. More thoughts:
Brandon Strittmatter
@frank_denbow thanks Frank really appreciate the candidness in the video, already shared it around with the team and fixed that typo 😅 We’ve been getting a lot of love from both developers and product teams so have been trying to build a collaborative tool for everyone to work out of. Completely agree on updating to use case based messaging. Would love to hear how you think we can be a 10/10!

Congrats on your launch! Love how easy your landing page copy is to understand for non-technical people. Looks incredible.
Brandon Strittmatter
@esus thank you, that means a lot! Our goal is to make data accessible to everyone so I’m glad it’s working 😊
Jamie Barton
Congrats on the launch Outerbase team! The AI parts of executing queries and fetching data is amazing. I love the design, integrations and ease of use across the entire Outerbase product. Best of luck with the launch! 🚀
Brandon Strittmatter
@notrab thank you Jamie! We are huge fans of Turso and also yourself ☺️ Thank you for being such a big supporter and always believing in us!
Aman Wen
Upvoted this because honestly, anything that makes data less daunting is a win in my book. I do wonder, can Outerbase handle the occasional vague or messy question, or does it need the queries to be pretty specific? It'd be cool if I could just ramble at it and still get the insights I need.
Brandon Strittmatter
@aman_wen great question! It’s surprisingly good with messy data, and when things do come up we have a data catalog that you can use to further improve accuracy! We dog food it and I throw random nonsensical questions at it all the time and it does a great job pulling insights from them 😂 If you have a chance to try it I’d love to hear your thoughts!
André J
Pretty cool! Will you allow personal OpenAI API tokens in the future? 🙏
Brayden Wilmoth
@sentry_co Hey André! We do have something in the works that will allow you to bring your own OpenAI API keys into the platform but it's not ready yet!
André J
@brayden22wilmoth Looking forward to it! I get $5k OpenAI tokens through my startup incubator, so looking for places to splurge 😸
Brayden Wilmoth
@brayden22wilmoth @sentry_co I can't blame you for wanting to use those, haha!

Finally, an app that makes tasks simpler and more enjoyable. Kudos to the developers!
Bryan Clark
Congrats on the launch! I've been playing with different queries simply written as I'd ask the question and the results returned are exactly what I would expect. Happy to have Neon as a launch partner!
Brayden Wilmoth
@clarkbw Thanks Bryan! We're excited to have Neon as a launch partner ourselves :)
Daniela Passos
Congrats on the launch, team! I love the dashboard's design and the AI features in our Data Studio, Outerbase just keeps getting better and better. This is just the beginning 🚀
Brandon Strittmatter
@danizeres Thank you so much Dani!
Neel Balar
Loving the new updates! We’re a very happy customer of Outerbase!
Brandon Strittmatter
@neel_balar Thank you Neel 😊
Andreas Metzger
This is great! I have built a low-code prototype with Google Sheets and I will have to migrate to a real db soon, but hand-fiddling with SQL sucks. This looks like the DB frontend I've always wanted and it has AI data interpretation included as well! In your pricing, what is the definition of a "base"? Is a base = 1 database?
Brayden Wilmoth
@andyboy Thanks Andreas. We are working hard on making this the database frontend everyone has desired. In our pricing a base is equal to a database connection, that is correct!
Alex Danilowicz
Love the space theme of Outerbase! Makes interacting with my database fun and enjoyable!!!
Trent Kennelly
Wow! This is absolutely wild. Take that data and make it actionable without needing to know SQL. Really awesome move here! Love the layout too. 🤩
Brandon Strittmatter
@trent_kennelly Thanks Trent, I really appreciate it!
Mike Jerome
Pretty cool! Super quick to connect to my Neon Postgres instance and my first conversation gave me the answer I expected. From `What's my median value?` to `SELECT PERCENTILE_CONT(0.5) WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY value) AS median_value FROM playing_with_neon;`.
Brandon Strittmatter
@mike_jerome you love to see it! Thanks for making the Neon integration so simple 😊
Nikita Shamgunov
Love the new look! Congrats on the launch !
Brandon Strittmatter
@nikita_shamgunov Thank you Nikita 💚
Andy Hattemer
Outerbase feels like the modern-day PHPMyAdmin Panel. So useful
Brandon Strittmatter
@andyhattemer the original inspiration 😂
Matthew Busel
Killer team, killer product. Super cool to see the update!
Brayden Wilmoth
Thanks for the kind words @mbusel :)
Ryan Gilbert
Absolutely love the branding. Congrats on the launch! 🚀
