UiPath and Snowflake Partner to Unite Automation and AI

▼ Summary
– UiPath and Snowflake have partnered to combine UiPath’s Agentic Automation platform with Snowflake Cortex AI for faster data-driven autonomous actions.
– This integration enhances UiPath Maestro’s ability to orchestrate a new class of data agents that act on insights from structured and unstructured data in Snowflake.
– Snowflake Cortex Agents enable organizations to build AI agents that retrieve trusted insights from all enterprise data, solving the mismatch between AI models and data.
– The partnership allows customers to seamlessly move from data insights to orchestrated actions without overhauling legacy systems or established workflows.
– Both companies emphasize that the collaboration helps organizations accelerate innovation, improve efficiency, and drive meaningful business outcomes through agentic automation.
A major new alliance between UiPath and Snowflake promises to fundamentally reshape how businesses leverage artificial intelligence and automation. This partnership unites UiPath’s sophisticated Agentic Automation platform with the advanced capabilities of Snowflake Cortex AI, creating a powerful synergy that enables companies to rapidly convert complex data into decisive, intelligent actions. The collaboration effectively bridges the gap between analytical insight and tangible operational impact across a wide spectrum of enterprise processes.
By integrating UiPath’s enterprise-grade automation with Snowflake’s modern data platform, the initiative significantly expands the functionality of UiPath Maestro. This orchestration layer can now manage a broader range of agents, including low-code, no-code, and specialized data agents. A key outcome is the ability to orchestrate a powerful new category of data agents that act directly upon insights derived from both structured and unstructured data residing within the Snowflake environment.
Snowflake Cortex Agents are designed to help organizations construct intelligent AI agents that retrieve meaningful insights by coordinating across an enterprise’s entire data landscape. These agents are built upon the high-accuracy retrieval capabilities of Cortex Analyst for structured data and Cortex Search for unstructured information. This foundation addresses a common challenge: the mismatch between AI models and the underlying data. It allows business users to pose complex questions and receive reliable, context-rich answers. UiPath agents can then take these trusted insights to optimize existing workflows and even create entirely new processes, all without the need for disruptive overhauls of legacy systems.
A senior executive from Snowflake emphasized the core philosophy behind the partnership. “We operate on the principle that data must form the bedrock of every intelligent enterprise,” stated Baris Gultekin, Vice President of AI at Snowflake. “Linking our technology with UiPath’s Agentic Automation creates a seamless pathway from insight to action. We are jointly empowering organizations to not only comprehend their data in real-time but to act upon it with precision, thereby accelerating innovation, boosting efficiency, and generating significant business results.”
Echoing this sentiment, a UiPath leader highlighted the practical value of the integration. “The true worth of data is measured by the actions it enables,” said Graham Sheldon, Chief Product Officer at UiPath. “Merging Snowflake Cortex AI with the UiPath Platform allows customers to transform reliable insights into coordinated, automated action without re-engineering their current IT infrastructure. Furthermore, because our platform is vendor-agnostic, they can implement this agentic automation on their own terms, scaling it across a flexible, secure, and open ecosystem.”
