What RegSQL is
RegSQL is a web-based SQL workspace with browser-local formatting and optional AI tools for generating, explaining, or repairing queries. Formatting adjusts whitespace and casing without changing query logic, aliases, or comments, and runs in a browser worker without an account or server round trip. It accepts multi-statement input up to 1 MB, though stored procedures and unusual delimiter changes may not be supported. The listed dialects are PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQLite, BigQuery, SQL Server, Snowflake, and Oracle PL/SQL. Formatting can reveal parsing problems, but it does not connect to a database or check tables, columns, permissions, data types, or runtime behavior. SQL, prompts, and schema text are sent to the AI provider only when you choose Generate, Explain, or Repair. The Free plan includes unlimited local formatting and 20 AI requests per month. Indie is listed at $8 per month, or $72 billed yearly ($6/month), with 500 AI requests per month and expanded schema context. The privacy policy says submitted text is not stored in account, quota, or analytics tables or written to application logs.
Good
- Formats SQL locally without an account.
- Preserves query logic, aliases, and comments.
- Supports multi-statement input up to 1 MB.
- Free plan includes unlimited formatting and 20 AI requests monthly.
Watch out
- Stored procedures may not be supported.
- Does not verify database objects or runtime behavior.

Who it suits
RegSQL suits independent developers who want browser-based SQL formatting and optional AI help. It may also fit users who prefer formatting to happen locally and want to choose when query text is sent to an AI provider.
Verdict
RegSQL combines local SQL formatting with AI query assistance across the dialects it lists. Its formatter does not validate queries against a database, and stored procedures may fall outside its supported input.
