- Audit log of every change
- No Firetool server in between
Works everywhere your team does
Features
A Firestore viewer, editor and query tool in one window
Day-to-day Firestore work in one desktop window, plus what the Firebase console doesn't offer: CSV and JSON exports, bulk field changes, copies between projects, JS queries and a full audit trail.
Browse and query
Filter, sort and page through any collection or collection group. Count, sum or average without loading everything.
Learn more →JS queries
Admin SDK-style scripts for reports and bulk updates, with transactions, aggregations and vector search.
Learn more →Edit and import
Edit in the table or as JSON with exact types. Set, rename or delete a field in every matching document.
Learn more →Export and back up
CSV that opens cleanly in Excel, JSON or YAML. Back up a whole database of any size in the background, and restore it anywhere.
Learn more →Data transfer
Copy chosen collections between projects and databases, adding only new documents if you like. Stop and resume.
Learn more →Authentication users
Find, create, disable and delete users, edit custom claims and make password reset links.
Learn more →Audit log
Who changed what, when and why, with a copy of deleted and edited documents you can restore.
Learn more →Production and read-only
Mark a project or one database as production or read-only. Changes there show before and after first, and deletes and bulk changes ask for the project ID.
Learn more →Scheduled exports
Hourly, daily or weekly CSV or JSON snapshots with a SHA-256 checksum, even when the app is closed.
Learn more →Command palette
Ctrl+K to any collection, document, project or action; bookmarks, and links that open the exact document.
Learn more →Search
Find a value in the rows you've loaded, with no reads, or in a field across the collections you choose, with the cost shown first.
Learn more →Compare and migrate
Staging against production, database by database: documents, schemas, rules and Auth settings. Then migrate what differs, with a preview first.
Learn more →Functions, logs and services
New in 4.5.2 (Pro): search logs, see a function's calls and errors, roll Hosting back, publish to Pub/Sub, run queued tasks and publish Remote Config.
Learn more →Undo a whole operation
Take back a bulk change, copy, import, restore or migration in one step, users included, after one preview of what goes back.
Learn more →Saved changes
Run a bulk change on staging, then production, with the same preview, or export it as a script.
Learn more →Team sharing
Share saved queries, changes and dashboard cards through a file your team keeps, merged so nobody's work is lost. Pro.
Learn more →Rules simulator
Try a request against your security rules before you deploy and see which lines allowed or denied it.
Learn more →Schema and explain
Every field of a collection with its types, and how Firestore runs a query, with the index it needs.
Learn more →AI assistant and MCP
Ask about your data in plain words, or connect your own assistant. Changes it suggests wait for your approval.
Learn more →The firetool command
Query, export and change data from a terminal or CI, with the same rules and audit log as the app.
Learn more →JS queries
Write it like the Admin SDK, see it as a table
Counts, reports and one-off fixes in the Firebase Admin SDK style you already know, run in an isolated process that can't touch your files.
- Transactions, batches,
FieldValueand aggregations - Vector search and query explain
- Every write goes through the same safety checks as the rest of the app
Whole collections
Copy, move, back up or rename whole collections
Right-click a collection or database for everything you'd otherwise script: copy to another project, duplicate, rename, back up with subcollections, restore, count and delete.
- References are pointed at the new project
- Busy or briefly unavailable Firestore is retried; long jobs resume where they stopped
- Existing documents: replace them or keep them and add only new ones
Safe with production data
Every change recorded, and the dangerous ones stopped
Whether you're one developer or a whole team, it helps to know who changed what. Firetool records every change, keeps a copy of deleted and edited documents you can restore, and asks before anything risky in production.
- Tamper-evident audit log with restorable copies
- Read-only access for support staff
- Policies that IT sets for every PC
Firebase Authentication
Look up and manage users without the console
Find users by email, phone number or UID, then disable, delete, edit custom claims, make password reset or verification links, or sign them out everywhere.
- Find users by sign-in, custom claim or status, and open a page per user
- Changes are recorded in the audit log
- Export the users you've listed to CSV
How it works
Up and running in two minutes
No server to set up and nothing to install in your Firebase project.
Download
Choose your system and download the installer, no email needed. It installs for you only, without admin rights.
Connect
Sign in with Google, add a service account key, or connect to the emulator. Every project you can reach appears in the sidebar.
Work safely
Browse, query, edit and export. Mark production projects so the risky things ask first, and every change is logged.

Security
Your data stays between you and Google
What Firetool does with your keys and data, for whoever reviews your software.
Keys stay on your computer
Service account keys are encrypted by your system (Windows DPAPI, the macOS Keychain, or the Linux keyring where one is installed). They're never sent to us.
Straight to Google
Firetool talks directly to Google's Firestore and Firebase Authentication APIs. There's no Firetool server in between.
Nothing listening
No web server and no incoming connections, apart from a one-off 127.0.0.1 address while you sign in with Google. It asks firetool.in only about updates and your licence, and sends what you choose to send, like a problem report.
Questions
Common questions
Is there a Firestore GUI for Windows, Mac and Linux?
Yes. Firetool runs on Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit and 32-bit), macOS 11 or newer (Apple Silicon and Intel) and 64-bit Linux. It shows your collections in a sidebar and your documents as a table, a tree or JSON.
Is Firetool free?
Yes. The Free edition lets you browse, filter and query your data for as long as you like, and every computer gets a 30-day trial of every Pro feature.
How do I export Firestore data to CSV or Excel?
Open the collection or query and choose Export, then CSV. The file opens cleanly in Excel, with nested fields as their own columns. JSON export is also available, and exports can be scheduled.
Can I copy a collection to another Firebase project?
Yes. Use Tools, Data transfer to copy chosen collections with their subcollections to another project or database, or right-click a collection and choose Copy. You can keep documents that already exist and add only new ones.
Is my Firebase data sent to your servers?
No. Firetool talks directly to Google's APIs from your computer, and your keys stay on your computer.
