Introducing SurrealDB Studio

SurrealDB Studio, released on August 10, 2026, replaces Surrealist as the official visual application for managing SurrealDB instances and Spectron contexts, with automatic migration of existing Surrealist data. Available as a browser app and desktop application for macOS, Windows, and Linux, it enables users to run SurrealQL queries, browse and edit records, visualize data as tables, graphs, or live event streams, design schemas, manage access controls, define database resources, administer cloud instances, and build Spectron agent contexts. Its workspace uses persistent, configurable tabs and split-screen views, while a schema-aware editor provides autocomplete, documentation, and real-time validation. Studio supports browser-based sample or hosted databases without installation, and its desktop version can launch local instances directly. Planned capabilities include agent integration through MCP, synchronized configurations across devices, team sharing, collaborative connections, notebooks, dashboards, and embedded documentation. Surrealist will continue functioning but receive no further feature updates, while future cloud functionality will move to Studio; using Studio currently requires a SurrealDB account, although a self-hosted-focused alternative is in development.
