Less setup. More understanding.

One workspace.
From file to finding.

Bring the files you already have. RowCove detects the source and keeps the next useful step within reach.

01

Open and orient.

Choose a file or folder with the native picker. See source information, field types and a bounded first page.

Open your first dataset
02

Ask better questions.

Project the fields you need, narrow a symbol or time range, inspect records and check data quality.

Explore real workflows
03

Keep the evidence.

Follow results back to source records. Stage reversible changes and export a separate copy where the reader supports it.

Work safely with edits

The actual desktop app

A workspace you can inspect.

Data tools, source context and complete values in one place. This is the real Windows client with built-in generated sample data.

Designed for the large-file reality

Keep the work moving.
Keep the browser small.

Rust owns the heavy work. The interface receives bounded results, not an entire dataset. Column projection, partition pruning and disk-backed preparation reduce unnecessary work.

Before you begin

A few useful answers.

Read the complete guide
What is RowCove?

RowCove is a local data workspace for inspecting, querying and safely editing data files on your computer. The desktop app uses Tauri, React and a Rust data engine.

Does RowCove upload my files?

The desktop data engine processes files locally. Account services receive your email and purchase status, not your datasets. If you connect an AI client through MCP, the tool results you request are shared with that client and may reach its model provider.

What does Preview include?

Preview is free and does not need an account. Inspect supported file information, schema and up to 100 records in a read-only first page. Pro adds full-file workflows and MCP; available operations depend on the reader.

How much does Pro cost?

Pro costs US$15 per month or US$150 per year. The yearly plan is billed upfront and saves US$30 compared with twelve monthly payments. Applicable taxes and the final total are shown at checkout.

Can I cancel my subscription?

Yes. Open Account and choose Manage subscription. Cancel renewal in the Paddle portal. Access continues through your paid period; approved full refunds revoke the refunded purchase.

How does offline access work?

After activation, the app keeps a device-bound signed license. It refreshes online. Licenses last up to three days with up to one extra day of offline recovery, never beyond the paid subscription end. Reconnect periodically to keep Pro active.

Which platforms are available?

Windows is the currently validated desktop platform. macOS support is planned in the Tauri implementation; Mac release acceptance is still pending. Check the release page for published builds.

Is every listed format fully editable?

No. Reader capabilities differ. CSV, JSONL, Parquet and Arrow have table workflows; database sources have explicit table selection. Some scientific and training formats currently expose metadata or archive members rather than decoded samples. See the format guide.
