What Is Snowflake Cortex AI?
Snowflake Cortex AI is Snowflake’s unified AI platform layer that enables generative AI, machine learning, search, reasoning, and agentic workflows directly within Snowflake. By operating natively on Snowflake data, Cortex AI allows organizations to build AI-powered applications and analytics without duplicating data or introducing unmanaged AI infrastructure.
Cortex AI powers multiple Snowflake AI capabilities, including Snowflake Intelligence, Cortex Agents, Cortex Search, Cortex Analyst, and Cortex AI Functions—while inheriting Snowflake’s enterprise-grade security, governance, lineage, and compliance controls. This makes Cortex AI well-suited for organizations that need to operationalize AI responsibly at scale.
Cortex AI Capabilities Atrium Helps Implement
We help organizations design and implement Snowflake Cortex AI across the full set of Snowflake-supported capabilities.
Snowflake Intelligence
Deliver trusted, AI-powered experiences that provide accurate answers, deep analysis, and decision support directly on Snowflake data.
We help deploy Snowflake Intelligence as a governed, business-ready capability built on Cortex AI.
Cortex Agents
Design and orchestrate agentic workflows that retrieve, synthesize, and act on data across structured and unstructured Snowflake sources.
We help teams move Cortex Agents from experimentation to reliable, production use cases.
Cortex AI Functions
Build AI-powered analytics and transformation pipelines using familiar SQL syntax.
We help organizations apply Cortex AI Functions to analyze structured and multimodal data without complex coding or data movement.
Cortex Analyst
Apply AI-driven reasoning to convert natural language questions into accurate SQL and analytical workflows.
We help teams implement Cortex Analyst in a way that balances usability, cost efficiency, and analytical accuracy.
Cortex Search
Enable semantic and hybrid (keyword + vector) search across documents and datasets stored in Snowflake.
We help organizations implement Cortex Search to support retrieval-augmented generation, knowledge discovery, and AI-powered applications.
Large Language Models (LLMs)
Leverage industry-leading LLMs including Anthropic Claude, Meta Llama, and Mistral, directly within Snowflake using serverless APIs.
We help organizations select, govern, and operationalize LLMs as part of their Cortex AI strategy.
Why Atrium?
We combine deep Snowflake expertise with hands-on experience across generative AI, analytics, and agentic workflows to help organizations operationalize AI, not just experiment with it.
Our team understands how Snowflake Cortex AI fits into the broader Snowflake ecosystem. This allows us to design cohesive, scalable AI strategies that balance innovation with governance, security, and long-term sustainability.
We help organizations use Snowflake Cortex AI as a true AI platform, moving beyond experimentation to production-ready AI use cases that are secure, scalable, and aligned to real business outcomes.
