+
+Use a web-based SQL client to query the [ENS Unigraph](/docs/integrate/unigraph/concepts#indexed-data-model) from a read-only [ENSDb Snapshot](/docs/integrate/integration-options/ensdb-cli). This is a convenient way to explore the indexed data model and run queries without needing to set up your own Postgres client.
+
+### Get started
+
+1. Click the "_ENSDb Alpha (read-only snapshot)_" button below to connect to a read-only ENSDb Snapshot Server.
+
+   :::caution[ENS state may be out of date]
+   The ENSDb Snapshot Server hosts an [ENSDb instance](/docs/services/ensdb/concepts/database-schemas#ensdb-instance) created from an [ENSDb Snapshot](/docs/integrate/integration-options/ensdb-cli). The ENSDb Snapshot is taken at a certain point in time from the current [ENSNode Alpha hosted instance](/docs/hosted-instances#ensnode-alpha). It means that the latest state of ENS won't be reflected in the ENSDb instance, but it is a convenient way to explore the ENS Unigraph data model and run queries without needing to set up your own ENSDb instance.
+   :::
+
+2. Browse tables in the [ENSDb Writer Schema](/docs/services/ensdb/concepts/database-schemas#ensdb-writer-schema) (named as `alpha` in this example ENSDb instance) and the [ENSNode Schema](http://localhost:4321/docs/services/ensdb/concepts/database-schemas#ensnode-schema) (always named as `ensnode`).
+
+3. Use "_SQL Console_" to run queries against the ENS Unigraph data model.
+
+4. Use "_Schema_" to view the schema of each table, including columns and indexes.
