Seamlessly interact with your data stack wherever you work
Access Cortex Code through two interfaces: in Snowsight and as a command line interface (CLI) that runs in a local shell.
Slash production time
Expedite data engineering, advanced analytics and development of agents and applications.
Empower every user
Give technical and non-technical teams the power to build confidently with data.
Simplify complexity
Turn intricate data tasks into streamlined yet sophisticated workflows that drive productivity — and results.
Benefits
Accelerate Your Enterprise Data Lifecycle with Cortex Code
Faster innovation
Speed up end-to-end development across your data stack
Easily build, manage and optimize complex data workflows with support for popular data systems like dbt and Apache Airflow®¹.
Swiftly build and deploy Snowflake Intelligence agents that interact directly with your enterprise data using natural language commands.
Generate fully executable ML pipelines autonomously, ready to run directly in Snowflake Notebooks.
“Cortex Code gives our teams a simple, in-platform way to move quickly from exploring ideas to delivering AI-driven workflows directly on Snowflake.”
Srinivas Madabushi
Sr. Vice President, Technology, LendingTree
Deep awareness of Snowflake’s data and semantics
Harness your unique Snowflake context
Leverage a deep understanding of your specific data catalog to simplify discovery and management using natural language.
- Quickly debug and refactor code with intelligent suggestions tailored to your specific Snowflake environment, tables and views.
Use conversational commands to perform complex admin tasks, such as managing catalogs, setting permissions, creating users and optimizing costs.
“Cortex Code helps our engineers improve the performance of our business intelligence tools, meaningfully reducing the time it takes to improve quality and speed of Natural Language Query responses.”
