Finally, a way to talk to your data with natural language.
Accessing insights shouldn’t be the hardest part of working with data. Yet for many organizations, the process is still slow, fragmented, and dependent on overworked analytics teams. Snowflake Intelligence transforms that experience, enabling users across the business to securely interact with data in natural language and get immediate answers they can trust.
As a Snowflake Intelligence Launch Partner, OneSix helps organizations bring this new capability to life, accelerating decisions, improving collaboration, and driving measurable business results.
How It Works
Snowflake Intelligence makes it possible for anyone in your organization to talk to your data naturally and get instant, trusted answers.
Built on the Snowflake Data Cloud, it brings together conversational AI, intelligent automation, and enterprise-grade security to help teams move from insight to action without waiting on a dashboard.
Ask a question in plain language, like “Which products drove the most revenue growth last quarter?”, and Snowflake Intelligence gets to work behind the scenes:
Understands your question. Using Cortex AISQL and Cortex Analyst, it interprets your request and automatically generates the right queries, no SQL required.
Analyzes across all your data. It reasons over both structured data (like tables or metrics) and unstructured data (like documents, notes, or emails) to uncover patterns, trends, and the why behind the what.
Delivers clear, visual answers. Results appear instantly in an intuitive interface that makes insights easy to explore and share.
Takes action automatically. Through Cortex Agents, Snowflake Intelligence can trigger workflows, send alerts, or update systems, turning insights into outcomes in real time.
Keeps everything secure. Because it runs natively inside Snowflake, it respects your existing roles, access controls, and governance, ensuring every result is accurate, transparent, and compliant.

Customer Churn Prediction
Detect early churn signals in structured and unstructured data to help customer success teams act faster and prevent revenue loss.
OneSix’s Customer Churn Predictor, powered by Snowflake Intelligence, Cortex Analyst, and Cortex Agents, helps customer success teams detect early signs of churn hidden in structured and unstructured data like support tickets, meeting notes, and emails.
By consolidating data such as product usage, NPS scores, and sentiment directly in Snowflake, teams gain a unified, AI-driven view of customer health. The system surfaces subtle churn signals, generates automated risk briefings, and recommends next-best actions through an LLM-powered advisor.
