- Cortex Search: The PDFs are processed, and their content is vectorized to enable semantic search, allowing the system to understand the meaning behind your queries, not just keywords.
- Cortex Analyst: A semantic model is configured to define the relationships and metrics within the portfolio data, making it easy for the AI to understand and respond to analytical questions.
- Snowflake Intelligence: An AI agent is created and equipped with the Cortex Search and Cortex Analyst tools. This allows it to act as an expert research assistant, intelligently routing queries to the appropriate tool to provide comprehensive answers.
- Streamlit: A Streamlit application is deployed on Snowflake to create a user-friendly interface that brings all the components together, providing a single point of access for all AI-powered insights.
