AirQuery for Snowflake | Governed Conversational AI on Snowflake
AirQuery for Snowflake · Powered by Thinkbox

Ask your Snowflake data anything. Get governed answers.

AirQuery is a fully managed cloud platform for conversational AI analytics. Connect it to Snowflake in minutes, with nothing to install. Your experts build Thinkboxes on Snowflake databases and schemas, you pick the model, and business users ask questions in plain language. Every answer is reproducible, cited, and governed by the security rules in your AirQuery data model. Your existing Snowflake row access policies and masking policies are supported too.

How It Works

From Snowflake to trusted answers in three steps

Sign up & connect Snowflake

Sign up for AirQuery and connect Snowflake from the AirQuery console. Connect with a Snowflake service user using key-pair authentication or OAuth. AirQuery uses a read-only connection you control, reads table metadata, and sends queries to your Snowflake virtual warehouse, so your tables are never copied into AirQuery.

  • Snowflake virtual warehouses
  • OAuth / key-pair auth
  • Fully managed, nothing to install

Build a Thinkbox

Your subject matter experts pick the databases, schemas, and tables that matter. Then they define relationships, approved metrics, business rules, and security rules for who can see which rows and columns. Thinkbox assembles these into a living model the agent reasons over.

  • Tables, joins & approved metrics
  • Row & column security rules
  • Choose your model

Ask, Verify, Share

Users ask questions in the AirQuery web workspace, Slack, or Microsoft Teams. Each answer shows its sources, SQL, and reasoning steps. Pin answers, set alerts, or embed them in your own apps through the API or MCP.

AirQuery + Snowflake

Snowflake holds the data. AirQuery makes it answerable.

Snowflake gives you one governed platform for your data, shared across teams and partners. AirQuery adds a conversational AI layer on top, delivered as a cloud service, so business users get answers instead of tickets. Thinkbox combines model intelligence with the knowledge of your own experts. The result is analytics your CFO can trust and your analysts don't have to rebuild.

Queries run where the data lives

AirQuery's cloud reasoning layer sends SQL to your Snowflake virtual warehouse. The heavy lifting happens in Snowflake, with no extracts, no copies, and no second warehouse to maintain.

Your models, your choice

Use AirQuery's managed models, or connect models you already run in Snowflake Cortex AI. Change models without rebuilding your Thinkboxes.

Security built into the data model

Row-level and column-level security rules live in the Thinkbox data model, next to your metrics. Define them once and they apply to every question, in every channel. Already use Snowflake policies? AirQuery works with your existing policies as well.

Security & Governance

Cloud AI on enterprise data, without giving up control

AirQuery is a SaaS platform built for finance, operations, and regulated teams, where a wrong number or a leaked row is not an option.

Row & column security

Security rules are part of the AirQuery data model. Map users and groups from your SSO to the rows they can see and the columns they can access, and mask sensitive fields such as salaries or personal data.

Works with Snowflake policies

AirQuery supports Snowflake row access policies and masking policies. Each query runs with the asking user's context, so your existing policies filter rows and mask columns inside the database, on top of the rules in the AirQuery data model. The connection itself uses a read-only account you control.

No copies, no pipelines

AirQuery sends SQL to Snowflake and receives only the result rows needed for each answer. It never replicates your tables, and your data is never used to train models.

Fully auditable answers

Every answer records the user, question, model, Thinkbox version, security rules applied, generated SQL, and source tables. Re-run it and you'll get the same answer.

One set of rules, every channel

The same metrics and security rules apply whether a question comes from the web workspace, Slack, Teams, the API, or MCP. There are no per-dashboard permissions to maintain.

Secure, managed cloud service

SOC 2 Type II, SSO, role-based access to Thinkboxes, encrypted connections to Snowflake, and encryption in transit and at rest.

Benefits

Why teams add AirQuery to Snowflake

Most Snowflake projects end up with clean data and a long backlog of report requests. AirQuery opens that data to the people who need it, with the same guardrails your data team built.

01 / Speed

Live in minutes, answers in seconds

No servers to deploy and no upgrades to manage. Connect Snowflake, build a Thinkbox, and business users can start asking questions the same day.

02 / Trust

Same question, same answer

Deterministic reasoning over approved metrics removes hallucinated numbers and conflicting definitions.

03 / Control

Governance by default

Security rules live in one place, the AirQuery data model, and are applied to every answer automatically. No shadow copies of your data.

04 / ROI

More value from your Snowflake data

Turn your Snowflake investment into everyday decisions across finance, sales, supply chain, and HR.
