It is very surprising to me, then, that even in 2025 we have found available data modeling software to leave a lot to be desired. The way we design, document, and deploy databases hasn’t kept up with how fast software is moving.

Honestly? The big players in this market never got the memo and their applications are still Windows95-themed, complete with ribbons, floppy disk button to save, you name it. The new ones? Meh. They are either full of bugs, unresponsive, difficult to use, missing a lot of things, or force you into the cloud when you want to stay in control of your own data.

This is where DBAnvil comes in - a new data modeling tool from Bullbyte.

Why DBAnvil?

DBAnvil is a desktop-first database modeling tool designed for practitioners and architects alike. It brings you:

• Intuitive diagramming – Clean, snappy canvas to create and edit tables, columns, indexes, and relationships.

• Bi-directional schema diffing – Compare your diagrams against a live database and choose exactly what changes to apply, in either direction.

• Precise deploy scripts – Generate SQL that reflects your choices, not guesswork.

• Privacy and control – Everything stays local on your machine. No forced cloud, no lock-in.

At launch we’ll support PostgreSQL, SQL Server, MySQL and Oracle, with more on the roadmap.

What Makes DBAnvil Different

We believe data modeling should be fast, trustworthy, and enjoyable. That means:

• No cluttered interfaces or decade-old UX.

• No all-or-nothing migrations — cherry-pick changes with confidence.

• No subscription bloat — one simple pricing model that scales with your needs.

This isn’t another cloud dashboard. It’s a serious tool for serious builders.

A New Standard for Database Modeling

The database world deserves better tools — tools that put developers, DBAs, and analysts back in control. DBAnvil is our answer.

We can’t wait to show you what we’ve been building.

Launch: November 2025.
