🚀 Introducing Analyst Studio – The Modern SQL IDE for Data Analysts (Early Preview)

May 2023

Explore. Query. Analyze — without chaos.

Data pros - are you looking for a smarter SQL IDE built specifically for data analysts? Meet runQL Analyst Studio, the modern SQL workspace that helps you save queries, explore data faster, and stay organized—without switching between tools.

Today, we’re pulling back the curtain on 👩‍💻 Analyst Studio (Early Preview). It’s a purpose-built SQL environment designed to eliminate bottlenecks and boost productivity for modern data teams.

Built from Real Feedback. Designed for Real Work.

Over the past few months, I worked with early customers—data analysts juggling Git, google Docs, Notion, SQL tabs, and Slack pings—and asked: What would make your life easier?

This month I formed the team and we started building. The result? A dedicated SQL IDE for analysts who need to move fast and stay in flow.

🔖 Saved Queries That Work Like They Should

Organizing your SQL just got easier. With Saved Queries you can:

  • Search by title or query content
  • Reuse queries in new tabs with one click
  • Track full version history with timestamps

No more Google Docs/Notion pastes. No more losing your best work.

🎯 A Smarter Querying Experience

This is more than an editor—it’s an intelligent SQL environment built for speed and trust:

  • Autocomplete with schema awareness
  • Interactive results pane for sorting, pivoting, and CSV downloads
  • Query logs and execution history to trace changes

🧠 Think in Tabs (The Right Way)

Analysts rarely ask just one question. That’s why Analyst Studio supports:

  • Unlimited, renameable tabs for organized querying
  • Session memory to reload your last workspace
  • Tab-close protection to prevent losing progress

✨ Easy to Try

Not ready to connect your data warehouse? No problem.

  • It's free and comes with a test database built in
  • Light and dark mode? You bet
  • Polished UI based on real feedback from folks like you

🕵️‍♀️ Your Query History, All in One Place

With query logs, everything is traceable and reproducible:

  • Review your entire analysis history under each query cell
  • View saved query versions inline

Perfect for peer reviews, reproducibility, and trust.
