A fast, native Postgres client for macOS
Postgres is a first-class Zolt engine on the free Community tier, with schema-aware completion, table browsing, streamed results, and native-grid rendering.
What you get
- Schema-aware SQL completion across schemas, tables, and columns
- Streamed result sets in a virtualized GPU-rendered grid
- Keychain-first credential storage; SSH tunneling lands with the public beta
- Schema diff and DDL generation between environments
- EXPLAIN-friendly query editor with per-statement timing
Why macOS specifically
Apple-silicon native. Renders through Metal — the same path Zed uses — with proper macOS conventions: native menu bar, ⌘-shortcuts, Keychain-stored credentials.
The macOS build shares the same Rust + GPUI codebase and core workflows as the Windows and Linux builds.
Comparing options? See how Zolt stacks up against DBeaver, TablePlus, DataGrip, and Beekeeper Studio.
Common questions
Is Zolt a native Postgres client on macOS?
Yes. Zolt is written end-to-end in Rust on GPUI and renders through Metal on macOS — no Electron, no WebView. Credentials are stored in macOS Keychain.
Which Postgres versions does Zolt support?
Postgres 9 through 16, including managed services that speak the Postgres wire protocol (RDS, Cloud SQL, Supabase, Neon).
When can I download Zolt for macOS?
Download the current macOS build from zoltdb.com/download. Versioned builds are published from GitHub Releases so you can choose the newest build or an older one inside your update window.
