SnapLogic has launched what it describes as the “world’s first” no-code generative AI (GenAI) development platform for enterprise applications that can be used by all employees, regardless of their coding abilities.
Now available in preview via the SnapLabs early access program, the GenAI Builder enables the creation of conversational AI models and chatbots to enhance employee and customer experiences.
Moreover, the platform is compatible with modern databases, application programming interfaces, and legacy mainframe data, bridging the gap between legacy and modern data systems.
Greg Benson, Chief Scientist at SnapLogic, believes that GenAI Builder’s no-code interface will accelerate app creation times: “Instead of relying on multiple experienced Python coders working for days and weeks to create an LLM-based solution, any employee – including those in finance, marketing, HR, and other business departments – can now use GenAI Builder to create solutions in a matter of hours.
Furthermore, Benson outlined the possible cost-saving benefits of the app:
By using natural language prompts to create powerful generative AI solutions while simultaneously connecting disparate data sources, global businesses can save millions and accelerate their LLM projects tenfold.
According to research by McKinsey, GenAI could “add the equivalent of $4.4 trillion annually” by enhancing business processes, conversational business intelligence, customer interactions, and IT acceleration using code generation.
Companies looking to make the most out of GenAI investment may face challenges to adoption, however, as a result of the lack of AI skills in the workplace, the accuracy of results, and privacy and security concerns.
The GenAI Builder addresses these issues by enabling organizations to integrate AI with enterprise data to improve the accuracy, efficiency, and customization of data for every employee.
Whether in the cloud or on-prem, the application can be used for various use cases, such as data analysis, customer support automation, reporting, contract and document review, and customizable marketing.
GenAI Builder Capabilities
The GenAI Builder allows companies to create new and secure digital experiences while meeting the demand for new AI services.
It enables the implementation of conversational AI copilots to current and future applications using a no-code visual designer, plus pre-built templates to match their use cases.
Finally, companies can integrate their data with large language models (LLMs) to build retrieval augmented generation (RAG) applications without any need for coding, which will lead to context-specific AI results with the necessary data security protections in place.
Jeremiah Stone, Chief Technology Officer at SnapLogic, hails the release as a major step forward:
We aren’t just stepping into the future with GenAI Builder, we are teleporting businesses there.
“Product and IT teams now have the ability to rapidly add high-performing conversational interfaces to their most important digital experiences, changing them from basic tools into intelligent collaborative systems, creating an entirely new realm of capabilities for employees, customers, and partners, delivering unprecedented business value.”
The GenAI Builder is currently in private beta, and it will be made generally available to all SnapLogic customers in February.
