One app.
Three native builds.
Pick your platform. Every build ships its backend inside the installer. mongosh (pinned, SHA-256 verified) downloads from MongoDB’s official host the first time you enable the shell. On macOS and Linux the app notifies you in-app when a new version ships; on Windows the Microsoft Store updates it. The app sends no usage analytics or crash reports.
MongoQUI is offline-first. A network connection is only required for cloud features: AI queries, shared connections, Report Builder share links, and license sync.
From download to first query in under a minute.
- 01
Install
Open the downloaded file and drop MongoQUI into Applications (macOS), install it from the Microsoft Store (Windows), or install the .deb with apt (Linux). Already using the direct-download Windows version? Uninstall it first.
One-click install · no admin rights on macOS - 02
Set a master password
MongoQUI locks the desktop app behind a master password stored only as an Argon2id hash on your machine. Pick a strong one. We can't reset it for you.
Argon2id · local-only - 03
Paste a MongoDB URI
Click New connection, paste any mongodb:// or mongodb+srv:// URI, and hit Test. TLS, X.509, replica sets and SRV records all work out of the box.
Atlas · self-hosted · AWS IAM - 04
Run your first query
Pick a database and collection from the sidebar, drop into the Visual Query Builder or IntelliShell, and hit ⌘/Ctrl + Enter. You're in.

Signed on every platform. Checksummed too.
Apple Developer ID + notarization on macOS, GPG signatures on Linux, and on Windows the Microsoft Store installs a package signed by Microsoft. Checksums for every macOS and Linux artifact ship in a manifest alongside each release.

Package-manager installs, one live so far.
The Linux .deb registers our signed apt repository on install, so apt keeps MongoQUI current. Homebrew and winget are next; until then, grab the canonical binary above.

Installing the .deb registers MongoQUI's signed apt repository (package mongo-qui), so apt upgrade and the in-app banner keep it current.
Modest machine. Serious workspace.
Nothing in the core workflow calls home. Your connection strings, queries, and results never leave your machine unless you opt in to cloud features.
Update notifications, never silent installs.
On macOS and Linux the app checks the release manifest at downloads.mongoqui.com in the background and shows a banner when a new version ships. You download and install on your terms. Nothing changes on your machine without you clicking it. On Windows, the Microsoft Store keeps MongoQUI up to date.
Launch the web app at app.mongoqui.com
Same workspace, no download. Browse shared team connections, view shared Reports, manage licensing and org settings. For production workloads we still recommend the desktop app. In the web app, queries run on MongoQUI’s hosted backend over TLS, so your cluster must be reachable from the internet. The desktop app keeps every query on your machine.
Install MongoQUI.
Free to start with an account, no card. Under 65 MB to download, one URI away from your first query.
