We are pleased to announce the release of DBmarlin 5.5. This version adds many AI Co-pilot improvements and new look Database Statistics screen.

DBmarlin AI Co-pilot

The AI Co-pilot see lots of new features this month as well as newer models and providers. First, we now support the latest OpenAI models, including 4.1, 4.1-mini, 4.1-nano, and the o4-mini which is designed to think for longer before responding. These additions give users more flexibility in choosing the right balance of performance and cost. We’ve also integrated with OpenRouter, an AI model aggregator that opens the door to a broader range of models from providers like Google, Anthropic, Meta and more, all from one interface.

Another major improvement is the introduction of streamed responses. Instead of waiting for the entire output to appear at once, you can now see the response as it’s generated, with the option to cancel mid-stream if needed. We’ve also made usability tweaks, like adding a Copy to Clipboard button so you can easily grab responses, and displaying estimated cost and token usage for each request, helping you manage both budget and efficiency.

For developers and tech users, we’ve improved code block formatting, now with syntax highlighting for languages like SQL and a handy copy button right in the block. This makes it easier than ever to review, test, and share code directly from your session.

These changes are all about making your AI experience more powerful, transparent, and user-friendly.

Database Statistics screen

We also revamped the Database Statistics screen. You can now choose between 1, 2, or 3 column layouts, allowing you to fit more information onto the screen at once. We also added a dropdown selector that lets you pick which charts you would like to see on the screen. This is useful for troubleshooting when you want to view certain metrics side by side without having to scroll down the screen.

Other notable improvements

The Statement table on Database Activity screen now has wider bars and better tooltips for ease of understanding wait events for each of your top statements.
