A Programmable Decision Layer for Snowflake
Structured, machine-readable instructions that travel with your data. Policies, access rules, and business meaning as operational metadata — zero data egress.

How It Works
Author decision-grade instructions, deploy context layers, and expose structured metadata to agents and workflows.
Define Policy Identity
Define policies, business logic, access controls, and data meaning as structured metadata. The AI assistant compiles plain-language descriptions into machine-readable instructions with conditional logic, cross-system constraints, and compliance tags.
Apply Meaning Layer
Apply context layers to tables, fields, or entire workflows. Permitted and prohibited uses, ownership, lineage, and AI/ML governance — persistent context that travels with your data, not in external documentation.
Decision Audit Trail
Agents and applications query context programmatically. Every policy change, agent decision, and validation event is captured — systems validate intent, apply constraints, and enforce rules at runtime.
Operational Metadata as a Decision Layer
Structured metadata that agents can parse, query, and enforce. Context moves with data, not in external documentation.
Persistent Context
Business logic, data contracts, policies, lineage, and access rules as structured, machine-readable context. Versioned metadata that evolves with your data.
Programmable Rules
Agents evaluate dynamic business rules instead of relying on hardcoded branches or human interpretation. Define conditional logic, time-based rules, and cross-system constraints.
Agent-Ready MCP Server
Agents query and execute against structured context through the Model Context Protocol. Works with Snowflake Intelligence — agents understand meaning, not just structure.
Policy Enforcement Without Bottlenecks
Governance happens automatically because agents understand constraints. Scale domain expertise to every decision without manual oversight.
Zero Data Egress
All processing stays inside your Snowflake account. Context travels with data — no external API calls, no data leaving your perimeter.
Snowflake Cortex AI
Compiles decision-grade instructions using Snowflake's built-in AI. No external API keys, no third-party inference.
Versioned & Portable
Context layers are versioned, allowing policies to evolve over time. Deploy once, version and evolve — no rigid implementations that break with updates.
Data That Carries Its Own Instructions
Persistent context means consistent decisions across analytics, AI, and operational workflows. Install Metatate and go from zero to governed in minutes.
