Turn natural language into production-ready database schemas with visual ER diagrams. Unlike ChatGPT, Structa lets you edit with clicks, catches errors with validation warnings, and exports to SQL, Prisma, and TypeScript.
Built in 3 weeks. Free to try.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Isak, and I built Structa in 3 weeks because database design is way harder than it should be.
THE PROBLEM:
Two weeks ago, I was designing a database for a SaaS idea. Spent 3 hours dragging boxes around in MySQL Workbench. Tried ChatGPT, but copy-pasting SQL into a visualizer felt clunky.
There had to be a better way.
THE SOLUTION:
Structa combines the best of both worlds:
- Describe your database in plain English
- AI generates the schema with visual ER diagrams
- Click to edit tables and relationships (no re-prompting)
- Validation warnings catch missing indexes and primary keys
- AI-powered quick fixes
- Export to SQL, Prisma, TypeScript, and migrations
WHY IT'S DIFFERENT FROM CHATGPT:
ChatGPT gives you text. Structa gives you an interactive, visual database designer.
You can see relationships, catch errors, iterate quickly, and export to any format you need.
THE JOURNEY:
I posted an early demo on Reddit 2 days ago and got absolutely torn apart (the video was slow, the value prop was unclear).
So I spent 24 hours rebuilding everything:
✅ New demo video
✅ Validation warnings
✅ AI-powered error fixes
✅ Manual relationship editing
✅ Version control
Feedback made it 10x better.
THE TECH:
- Next.js 14 + TypeScript
- Supabase for auth/database
- Built from scratch in 3 weeks
WHAT'S NEXT:
This is v1. Planning to add:
- Import existing schemas
- Team collaboration
- API access
What should I prioritize?
PRICING:
- Free: 5 generations/day
- Pro: $19/mo
- Lifetime: $299 (first 100 only)

Would love your feedback! What features are missing?
Thanks for checking it out 🙏
Structa currently generates general SQL and Prisma schemas with PostgreSQL as the default provider.
It doesn’t yet adapt the SQL to specific dialects like MySQL, SQLite, or SQL Server. Though that’s something we’re exploring as we expand compatibility.
Really curious, which DB type you usually use most?
Congrats on the launch! Structa feels like the perfect blend of AI speed and visual clarity for database design. Love how it removes the back-and-forth between prompts and tools—especially the live editing and instant exports to SQL and Prisma. Can totally see this becoming a must-have for indie devs and startup builders.
@chilarai Wow, that means a lot! Thank you 🙏 The goal from day one was exactly that: remove all the context switching between AI prompts and design tools.

Hey Isak - great to see the innovation to solve a problem. What do you see as the path to adoption for Structa?
Report
Does this support iteration on design with the AI? I have a DB with about 80 tables with relationships constraints etc... in natural language can I iterate with AI and see a diff (or something like a diff)?

@sanskarix Thanks a lot 🙏! Been working on this for weeks and finally pulled the trigger today. Super excited to see how people use it.
Congrats on launching! Love the visual approach to databases. How flexible is it for different DB types?

@sohan_patil Thanks so much 🙏

@masikh Yep, Structa already does that.
Whenever the AI proposes updates, you get an “Incoming Changes” popup showing what tables or fields were added, modified, or removed.
You can review the summary and either accept or reject the whole change set, basically a one-click schema diff for AI-generated edits.
We’re planning to expand that into more granular controls later, so you can accept individual table or field changes too.
@isakfiks awesome thanks. Is it possible to upload an existing schema from pgadmin ?

Morning crew is waking up 👋
Already super grateful for the love so far. It’s been surreal seeing builders trying Structa!
If you’ve tested it: what’s one feature that’d make it an instant daily tool for you?
Structa
Huge thanks for getting Structa to #13 today, couldn’t have done it without you all 🙏
Quick question for anyone who’s tested it:
What’s the ONE feature you wish Structa had next?
The top 3 requests will be prioritized for v2 this week.
So far the most common ideas have been around team collaboration, specific db types, and more export formats, but I’d love to hear yours.
Keep the feedback coming! 💙
