Two Snowflake Inc. executives left the company last year to start a new venture designed to leverage agentic AI and simplify data operations. The startup, Genesis Computing Inc., is backed with investment<\/a> from Snowflake itself, and the agents are focused on streamlining the arduous process of creating and managing complex data pipelines.<\/p>\n

Matt Glickman, CEO of Genesis Computing, and Stefan Williams, VP at Snowflake Ventures, talk with theCUBE about agentic AI.<\/p>\n

One of those executives, chief executive Matt Glickman<\/a> (pictured, left), outlined why Genesis agents were the right technology for automating manually intensive tasks.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve never met a data engineer who said, \u2018Please don\u2019t help me take away the workload I have\u2019,\u201d Glickman said. \u201cIt\u2019s a thankless job, it\u2019s a high burnout job, and it\u2019s highly complex. We realized if we can take this next wave of reasoning models that understand business context, understand Snowflake, and understand coding, it can become the killer use case and can actually help customers build the pipelines \u2026 take it off the hands of the humans who have to basically code it and put their business logic inside.\u201d<\/p>\n

Glickman spoke with theCUBE\u2019s Rebecca Knight<\/a> and Dave Vellante<\/a> at Snowflake Summit<\/a>, during an exclusive broadcast on theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media\u2019s livestreaming studio. He was joined by Stefan Williams<\/a> (right), vice president, Snowflake Ventures at Snowflake, and they discussed how Genesis is leveraging enterprise interest in agents and its relationship with Snowflake to drive customer interest. (* Disclosure below.)<\/p>\n

Agentic AI built on Snowflake<\/p>\n

Genesis announced<\/a> $5 million in seed funding earlier this year from Snowflake Ventures and other investors, such as Kearny Jackson LLC and former Snowflake CEO Bob Muglia<\/a>. The company\u2019s former Snowflake employees and integration with Snowflake\u2019s technology were important factors for the firm\u2019s venture arm, according to Williams.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we\u2019re trying to do with Snowflake Ventures is to lean into companies that are willing to think about Snowflake as a core component of their infrastructure as they look to deliver the technology to customers,\u201d Williams said. \u201cMatt and his team from the ground up started to build their product as a native app on Snowflake, really unlocking this agentic use case. Because the technology is powered on top of Snowflake, they\u2019re going to have a data advantage when they go into some of the customers that they\u2019re trying to work with.\u201d<\/p>\n

The team at Genesis is finding interest in their agentic AI concept<\/a> when they meet with customers. The difficulty confronting many organizations as they seek to build data pipelines is often leading the conversation, according to Glickman.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe actually had a customer we were working with in healthcare who basically had already signed on a systems integrator consultant,\u201d Glickman said. \u201cThey realized it was a hard problem, harder than they thought, and they were falling behind. They reached out and said, \u2018Let\u2019s see how maybe Genesis with your agents could find things that maybe the systems integrator couldn\u2019t.\u2019 That was the most surprising thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Genesis agents are being constructed using Snowflake\u2019s Cortex AI<\/a>, a suite of artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities that enable intelligence integration into data operations. The sizable Snowflake data platform, already in use among\u00a0major enterprises<\/a> such as Apple Inc., Walmart Inc., Amazon.com Inc., and Exxon Mobil Corp., has been helpful in raising Genesis\u2019 perceived value beyond its status as a startup.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe way that Genesis is building on Snowflake with this native app principle is that, as a small startup, you\u2019re able to actually get a lot of access to bigger customers than you would have typically never had access to because they don\u2019t want to trust a startup,\u201d Williams noted. \u201cWhen you\u2019re containerizing your application and you\u2019re deploying your application in the customer Snowflake environment\u2026you don\u2019t have to go through all the data governance, the security, the lengthy procurement cycles that can take six to nine months to go and actually deploy a solution.\u201d<\/p>\n
