Snowflake Inc. unveiled Cortex Code, a Snowflake-native AI coding agent designed to significantly boost enterprise data and AI development productivity by operating with full awareness of an organization’s Snowflake data, governance, and operational context.

Cortex Code enables users to perform complex data engineering, analytics, machine learning, and AI agent–building tasks using simple natural language, while maintaining enterprise-grade security and governance. The tool is available both within the Snowflake platform via Snowsight and locally through the Cortex Code CLI, allowing teams to integrate AI-assisted development into existing workflows and preferred coding environments.

Snowflake also announced new integrations to accelerate end-to-end AI development, including support for vibe coding with v0 by Vercel, agentic web search via Brave Search, and enhanced collaborative Workspaces with shared environments, Snowflake Notebooks, and OpenID Connect authentication. Customers such as Braze, dentsu, LendingTree, United Rentals, and WHOOP are already using Cortex Code to move data and AI projects from experimentation to production more quickly and reliably.
