Redgate Assistant

AI that actually knows your databases

Redgate Assistant is available for Redgate Monitor and SQL Prompt subscription customers.

Redgate Assistant knows your schema and runs under your access controls

Most AI tools have never seen your database. They guess, then act on that guess without a safety net. Redgate Assistant works from your actual schemas, lives inside the tools you already use, and runs under the access controls your database already enforces.

Built database-first

Redgate Assistant is backed by more than 25 years of expertise in one thing: databases

Knows your actual database

Grounded in your schemas, tables, and stored procedures, not generic SQL knowledge pulled from unknown sources.

Built in, not bolted on

It surfaces directly inside the solutions database professionals already use, so there's no separate AI tool to manage.

Governed from the first response

It runs as its own auditable user, inheriting the access controls a database already has.

Tests fixes before they're applied

It autonomously investigates an issue and drafts a fix, then tests that fix against a safe copy of the database, so what lands in front of you has already been proven safe.

Backed by Redgate’s best practice

Common database tasks are guided by workflows that encode Redgate's best practice, so quality doesn't depend on who's asking.

Carries context across your tasks

Redgate Assistant follows the work between the Redgate solutions it's built into, so switching from one to another doesn't mean starting over.

One assistant, not five

Redgate Assistant carries context wherever the work happens, whether that's writing a query, investigating a performance issue, or landing on a database nobody documented.

Find and fix seamlessly

Redgate Assistant works across Redgate Monitor and SQL Prompt to help you see the status of your entire server estate and easily find and fix problems.

25 years of database expertise

Redgate has been solving database problems since 1999, for the organizations that can least afford to get them wrong, including 92% of the Fortune 100.

Governed by design

Redgate Assistant is built with strong guardrails around what it can do, so any changes get tested against a safe copy of your database before it's ever suggested. Every action runs through its own auditable user, giving full visibility, and nothing reaches production without someone approving it first.

27 hours a week back

Redgate Assistant is grounded in what's actually running rather than a generic explanation borrowed from somewhere else, no re-explaining the environment, no reverse-engineering someone else's decisions, no waiting on whoever still remembers how the system was built. According to Redgate's own research, database professionals lose an average of 27 hours a week to work like this.

Redgate Assistant in SQL Prompt

Available in Prompt v11 or later (In-preview)

Redgate Assistant lives in a dockable chat panel right inside SSMS. It already knows what's in the query editor, so there's no pasting a schema in every time, and no starting from zero in every new session. Talk through a SQL problem and get an answer in context.

  • Generate SQL and bring it straight into the editor
  • Ask what a table, procedure, or relationship actually does
  • Pick a conversation back up without re-explaining it

What's next?

Redgate Assistant is built to grow, in two ways.

It grows in what it can do. Today it answers questions, helps identify issues, suggests fixes, and tests them inside Redgate Monitor and SQL Prompt. Over time it takes on more of the routine work on its own, always within the boundaries you set, and never pushing anything to production until a person signs off.

It also grows in where it works. It's coming to more of Redgate's solutions, starting with Flyway, so the same database expertise shows up wherever the work happens.

The direction stays the same either way: an assistant that does more of the database work, and earns more of your trust, one shipped capability at a time.

Frequently asked questions

What is Redgate Assistant?Redgate Assistant is AI built directly into Redgate's database solutions. It's grounded in a database's actual schemas rather than generic SQL knowledge, and it runs under the same access controls the database already enforces.
Is Redgate Assistant safe to use on production databases?Yes. It runs as its own distinct, auditable user, has no write access to production databases, and every suggested fix is tested against a safe copy of the database before it's applied. Nothing goes live without review.
Can Redgate Assistant make changes to a database on its own?It can investigate an issue and test a fix against a safe copy of the database on its own, but nothing it finds is applied to production until someone approves it.
How is Redgate Assistant different from ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, or other generic AI tools?Generic AI tools have never seen the database they're being asked about, so they guess. Redgate Assistant is grounded in a database's actual schemas and built into the Redgate solutions database professionals already use, rather than requiring anyone to copy schema details into a separate chat tool.
Which Redgate products include Redgate Assistant?Redgate Assistant is available today in Redgate Monitor and SQL Prompt, with more of Redgate's solutions connected over time.
What happens if Redgate Assistant gets a diagnosis wrong?Every suggested fix is tested against a safe copy of the database before anyone acts on it, so an incorrect suggestion gets caught in testing rather than reaching production.
