The Problem

Most teams don't have a DBA. Slow queries cause cascading performance failures. EXPLAIN plans are hard to read and optimize. Missing indexes are the #1 database performance issue. Query performance degrades silently as data grows. pg_stat_statements shows slow queries but not how to fix them.

The Solution

Database performance platform that continuously monitors query performance, identifies slow queries, recommends indexes and query rewrites, and predicts performance issues before they impact users.

Target Audience

Backend engineers troubleshooting slow database queries, DBAs managing PostgreSQL/MySQL performance, and teams scaling databases without a dedicated DBA

Why Now?

Applications hit database limits faster with growth. AI can analyze query patterns at scale. Most teams lack database expertise. Managed databases (RDS, Cloud SQL) still need query optimization. Performance is a user experience issue.

Free: 1 database, basic monitoring. Pro: $29/mo (3 databases + AI recommendations). Team: $79/mo (10 databases + regression alerts). Enterprise: $199/mo (unlimited + historical analysis). Annual: 20% discount.
