Snowflake AI only works on Snowflake. What about the rest of your data?
Snowflake Cortex locks you into a single warehouse. Myriade deploys a warehouse-native AI layer that works on Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, and Redshift, with no data movement.
The Snowflake-native AI trap
Snowflake Cortex and Intelligence promise integrated AI. But every AI query consumes additional credits, the intelligence built is non-portable, and, critically, Cortex doesn't understand your data either. It's another LLM plugged into raw data, hoping for the best.
Unpredictable credit costs: every Cortex function (LLM, embeddings, search) consumes compute credits with no clear cap. Costs spike as adoption grows.
No data understanding: Cortex queries raw data without documenting or understanding it first. Same hallucination risks as any other raw Text-to-SQL.
Single-warehouse AI: Cortex can't query your data in BigQuery, Databricks, or other sources. Your view remains fragmented.
Reinforced vendor lock-in: the more intelligence you build in Cortex, the more costly and complex migration becomes.
Myriade vs Snowflake Cortex / Snowflake Intelligence
Why choose Myriade over Snowflake Cortex
Why teams choose Myriade
AI that understands before it answers
Myriade reverse-engineers your data through statistical profiling, sampling, and cross-table analysis before generating any answer. Cortex skips this step and queries raw data directly.
Truly multi-source intelligence
Query Snowflake, BigQuery, and your other warehouses simultaneously. One question, all your data, not just what's in one platform.
Migration freedom
Your documentation and intelligence aren't tied to Snowflake. Add or switch a warehouse without rebuilding your understanding layer.
