Surrealist - Build smarter knowledge graphs for data-rich applications
by•
Surrealist lets you visualise SurrealDB queries as interactive knowledge graphs. Instantly spot patterns, explore relationships, and bring your data to life with real-time insights powered by graphs, vectors, and documents—all in one place.

Best wishes on your launch Surrealist
SurrealDB
Thank you so much @olynask 🚀 🎉 !

Congratulations!
The interactions and animations are so smooth that it makes me want to make more products :)
SurrealDB
Thanks so much @pritraveler 😀 ! @macjuul is a wizard when it comes to user interfaces 🚀 !

You guys should throw a party with @Alfred !
Seriously though — what's the underlying database format you're using? Postgres? MySQL? Something novel?
SurrealDB
Haha we definitely should @chrismessina 😀 ! As a little background story, the Surrealist hat icon 🎩 itself is based on the hat in the famous surrealism painting 'Son of Man' by René Magritte (there's a theme 😀). But we are massive macOS users here at @SurrealDB and @Alfred has always been such a powerful app!
The underlying database format is actually a new engine we built from the ground up to handle multi-model data (document, graph, relational, time-series, geospatial) in a single engine, with a SQL query language. Would love for you to try it out and let us know your thoughts 🎉 !
with this tools it can automate everything and a big help.
SurrealDB
Thanks @daigo_umehara 🚀 ! Let us know if you have any questions 🎉 .
Spotting patterns in real-time with graph visualization? This is how data should be experienced - intuitively!
SurrealDB is an excellent database. Its really a joy to work with. It deserves attention.
I have crafted both an MCP server and an n8n integration for it:
mcp server: https://github.com/nsxdavid/surrealdb-mcp-server
n8n node: https://github.com/nsxdavid/n8n-nodes-surrealdb
Both open-source... of course. :)
I tried Surrealist and it’s nothing short of amazing — seeing SurrealDB queries come to life as interactive graphs completely changed how I explore my data. Patterns pop, relationships click, and everything just makes sense visually. An absolute gem for anyone working with complex datasets.

This update not only streamlines workflows, but also empowers developers to truly understand and optimize their data models.
Huge congrats on the launch!
Surrealist looks like a massive productivity booster for anyone working with SurrealDB. Being able to visually explore relationships and patterns through knowledge graphs is such a powerful upgrade — especially for complex data models that can be hard to untangle in plain text.
The real-time interactivity and seamless graph debugging really set it apart. It's great to see dev tools evolving to be more intuitive and visual — this feels like the kind of thing that could easily become essential for both data-heavy apps and early-stage prototyping.
Excited to dive in and see how this fits into my workflow. Amazing work!
This sounds like a powerful solution for modern development needs. SurrealDB's flexibility across deployment environments and its SQL-like language make it approachable yet future-ready.
