What problem does it solve?

It identifies which Snowflake queries are driving the most cost, latency, and resource waste so you can prioritize optimization work instead of guessing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cost-based query ranking using SNOWFLAKE.ACCOUNT_USAGE.QUERY_ATTRIBUTION_HISTORY to surface the most expensive queries in a time window.
  • Performance and scan/spill enrichment using SNOWFLAKE.ACCOUNT_USAGE.QUERY_HISTORY to quantify elapsed time, bytes scanned, and spillage.
  • Actionable optimization guidance by detecting patterns like poor partition pruning, repeated query hashes (potential caching), and high spillage severity.

Quick Start

Ask an AI assistant to find the top expensive Snowflake queries from the last 7 days for a given warehouse and return a ranked list with severity classification and optimization recommendations.
