Computer brings data science to every team
Blog post from Perplexity
Perplexity has introduced a Snowflake App Connector that allows Pro, Max, and Enterprise users to query enterprise data through its Computer product using plain-language questions, aiming to reduce reliance on SQL expertise, dashboards, and data-team request queues. The connector can support tasks such as identifying support-ticket drivers, forecasting demand, segmenting customers, and evaluating marketing performance, while a shared semantic layer maps business definitions, metrics, tables, and common questions to appropriate SQL. The product draws on Perplexity’s internal Snowflake Slackbot, which employees reportedly use for up to 3,000 queries per week across functions including product, analytics, growth, support, and security. Security features include encryption, privacy protections, Snowflake role-based access controls, optional read-only permissions, and User OAuth so individuals can access only data already permitted through their Snowflake accounts; Perplexity states that connected data is not used to train models. Administrators can generate and review a data map through the Connectors settings, a process that may take up to 90 minutes depending on the platform’s complexity.
