Snowflake has expanded its product suite at Expedition 2026 to serve as the control and governance layer for enterprise AI agents. The company cited an MIT Technology Review report it sponsored showing that 55 percent of executives blame lack of business context for low-quality agent insights and 45 percent point to fragmented data. New Business Ontology in Horizon Catalog lets organizations assign owners to core definitions such as net revenue, link them to underlying data, and log changes for audit. Cortex AI Gateway acts as a centralized gate for agent operations across clouds and providers, enforcing policies, guardrails, observability, and cost limits. Snowflake also advanced CoCo, a coding agent for data teams, and CoWork, a productivity agent for knowledge workers, plus always-on bots that run in the background and escalate only when human approval is required.
