## The use case: how Snowflake deploys Mistral

Snowflake uses Mistral Large and Codestral in Cortex Analyst, its AI assistant for structured data, to generate SQL from natural language questions and explain results conversationally. A multi-agent approach has several agents draft SQL and another synthesize the final query.

Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Mistral and Snowflake, not ours.

> Based on internal evaluation sets, using Mistral Large and Codestral, Cortex Analyst is consistently close to 2x more accurate than single-shot SQL generation from state-of-the-art LLMs and delivers approximately 14% higher accuracy than another competing text-to-SQL solution in the market.

- **14%**: “delivers approximately 14% higher accuracy than another competing text-to-SQL solution in the market”
- **90%**: “Cortex Analyst achieved ~90% or higher accuracy reliably across customer evaluations as well as in benchmark tests”

> With Mistral Large and Codestral, Snowflake is delivering cutting-edge text-to-sql capabilities for complex and nuanced enterprise data.
