Writing about SQL Sleuth.

Logo, screenshots, a short description and the brand basics. For anything else, get in touch.

In one paragraph

SQL Sleuth is a desktop client for Microsoft SQL Server on Windows and macOS. It works with on-premises SQL Server 2017 through 2025, Azure SQL Database and Azure SQL Managed Instance, and follows the SSMS conventions SQL Server users expect. Safety is the core of the design: every statement is logged, every generated script is shown before it runs, and passwords stay in the OS keychain. There is no telemetry.

The name

Always SQL Sleuth: two words, both capitalized.
Never run the two words together, and never lowercase the “SQL”.
