The Snowflake AI
Snowflake is a cloud data platform that unifies data engineering, analytics, machine learning, and agentic applications on one governed AI Data Cloud. Teams store, process, and analyze structured and unstructured data across AWS, Azure, and GCP without maintaining separate pipelines for each workload.
Recent product launches center on agents built directly on enterprise data. Snowflake CoWork gives knowledge workers a personal agent at ai.snowflake.com to ask questions, run Deep Research across the data estate, and take action in tools like Slack, Gmail, Jira, and Salesforce. Snowflake CoCo is a governed coding agent for developers. Under the hood, Cortex AI and Snowflake ML provide access to leading LLMs, data agents, and end-to-end model workflows inside the same security perimeter as your data.
Snowflake serves large enterprises and data teams that need cross-cloud scale, unified governance, and a single place to build analytics, ML, and conversational apps. Over 12,000 global customers run workloads on the platform, with a marketplace of 3,400+ data and application listings.
CoWork lets knowledge workers query enterprise data and act in Slack, Gmail, Jira, and Salesforce from one chat
CoCo is a governed coding agent that plugs into wherever your team already builds software
Cortex AI runs models from Anthropic, Meta, OpenAI, and others inside Snowflake's security perimeter
One platform covers data engineering, analytics, ML workflows, and transactional Postgres workloads
Deploy on AWS, Azure, or GCP with unified security, governance, and disaster recovery across regions
Snowflake Marketplace lists 3,400+ ready-to-use data products and applications
Deep Research runs parallel agents to produce fully cited reports across structured and unstructured data
Consumption-based credit pricing lets teams scale compute up or down with actual usage.
AI models, agents, and source data all run inside the same governed security perimeter.
The 30-day free trial includes $400 in credits to test production workloads.
Supports both generative AI through Cortex and traditional predictive ML through Snowflake ML.
Credit-based billing can be difficult to forecast without active cost monitoring and optimization.
Business Critical and Virtual Private Snowflake tiers carry significantly higher per-credit rates.
Virtual Private Snowflake requires contacting sales rather than self-service signup.
Does Snowflake offer a free trial?
Yes. Snowflake offers a 30-day free trial with $400 in credits, immediate access to the AI Data Cloud, and the ability to run critical data workloads. Sign up at signup.snowflake.com to get started.
How does Snowflake pricing work?
Snowflake uses consumption-based pricing measured in credits. On AWS US East, Standard costs $2.00 per credit, Enterprise $3.00 per credit, and Business Critical $4.00 per credit. On-demand storage is $23 per TB per month after compression. See snowflake.com/en/pricing-options for full details.
What AI models are available in Snowflake?
Snowflake Cortex AI provides access to leading third-party LLMs from providers including Anthropic (Claude), Meta (Llama), Mistral, and OpenAI, plus Snowflake's own Arctic LLM. Teams can also build, train, and deploy traditional predictive ML models with Snowflake ML.
What is Snowflake CoWork?
Snowflake CoWork (formerly Snowflake Intelligence) is a personal work agent at ai.snowflake.com. It lets knowledge workers ask questions of enterprise data, automate multi-step tasks as Skills, and take action across connected tools like Slack, Gmail, and Salesforce within Snowflake's governed platform.
What cloud providers does Snowflake support?
Snowflake runs on Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). You can select platform and region on the pricing page, with dozens of regions available across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and government clouds.
How does Snowflake handle data governance for AI?
Snowflake Horizon Catalog provides role-based access control, data masking, row-access policies, object tagging, and audit logs for AI workloads. Features like Cortex Guard filter model outputs, and proprietary data stays within Snowflake's secure perimeter during inference.
Can Snowflake analyze unstructured data?
Yes. Snowflake supports unstructured data analytics at scale, including text, documents, and multimodal media. Cortex Search and Cortex Analyst power retrieval and self-service analytics over both structured and unstructured enterprise data.
