What Yuki does

Yuki is an Israel-based, venture-backed SaaS company founded in 2023 that builds an AI-powered real-time optimization platform for cloud data warehouses. Its core product, Yuki Fabric, is an autonomous contextual execution layer that sits between applications, AI agents, and data platforms (primarily Snowflake and BigQuery), dynamically routing every query to the right compute resource in real time based on workload patterns, platform state, and business priorities. The platform is built on a metadata-only architecture that requires no customer data access, no SQL rewrites, and no application changes, enabling production-safe deployment in under an hour. Yuki reports average customer cost reductions of 30–60% (42.6% average cited), cluster-count reductions of 30%, and for AI-agent workloads, queue-time reductions of 81–89%.

The product portfolio is modular: Snowflake Cost Optimization, BigQuery Cost Optimization, AI Agent Cost Optimization, Snowflake Dynamic Routing, Forecasting, a dbt integration, and an Enterprise-Grade governance module. Yuki generates revenue through a subscription pricing model tied to the savings it delivers, supplemented by a 14-day free trial that supports a product-led growth motion. Go-to-market combines self-serve trial entry, direct enterprise sales targeting data engineering leaders (CDO, VP Data, Head of Data), distribution through the AWS Marketplace and Snowflake Marketplace, an AWS ISV Accelerate co-sell arrangement, and a strategic technology partnership with Integrate.io covering end-to-end data cost optimization.

Named enterprise customers include Browsi (AdTech, 28% Snowflake credit reduction with doubled query volume), Qwilt (Content Delivery, 63% reduction in 24 hours), Tenable (Cybersecurity), Angle Studios (Digital Media), and Wild Alaskan Company (Food & Beverage, 48% reduction). The company emerged from stealth in January 2026 with a $6 million seed round led by Hyperwise Ventures (with VelocitX, Tal Ventures, Fresh.fund, and Yakir Daniel), has a 15-person team, and operates a dual-entity structure with Yuki Technologies Ltd. in Israel and Yuki Technologies Inc. in Delaware, building out US sales presence to complement its Tel Aviv R&D base.

Core offering

Yuki Fabric is an AI-powered real-time optimization platform that sits between applications, AI agents, and cloud data warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery, Iceberg-based data lakes). It autonomously routes every query to the right compute based on workload patterns, platform state, and business priorities, consolidating workloads and eliminating idle compute. The platform reduces cloud data warehouse spend by an average of 42.6% (with reported outcomes ranging 28-63%) using a metadata-only architecture that requires no code changes, no SQL rewrites, and no data access.

Product overview

Yuki is a real-time data cost optimization platform that serves as an autonomous contextual execution layer for modern data platforms in the AI era. The core offering is Yuki Fabric, an AI-powered optimization platform that sits between applications, AI agents, and data warehouses (Snowflake and BigQuery), automatically routing every query to the right compute in real time. The platform operates as a modular architecture with specialized optimization modules including Snowflake Cost Optimization, BigQuery Cost Optimization, AI Agent Cost Optimization, Snowflake Dynamic Routing, Forecasting, Snowflake dbt Integration, Enterprise-Grade Platform, Stable Performance, and Snowflake Data Applications. These modules work together to deliver cost savings of 42-60% on average while maintaining or improving query performance, with no code changes required.

Broad incumbents

• Spot.io (NetApp Spot): Cloud infrastructure optimization platform acquired by NetApp, originally focused on Kubernetes and now extending to broader cloud cost and performance optimization. Relevant competitor given the angel investment by Spot.io's founder in Yuki, signaling the founder's view of adjacency.
• Apptio Cloudability: Established multi-cloud FinOps platform (now part of IBM) with Snowflake and cloud data warehouse cost management features. Larger incumbent offering broader cost governance versus Yuki's narrow focus on warehouse-level real-time optimization.
• Datadog Cloud Cost Management: Major observability platform expanding into cloud cost management with native integrations to Snowflake and BigQuery. Indirect competitor through broader monitoring + cost bundle, threatening Yuki if customers consolidate observability and FinOps spend.
• IBM Turbonomic (Apptio): Hybrid cloud cost and resource optimization platform acquired by IBM, addressing compute, storage, and database workloads. Competes for enterprise FinOps budgets but with a much broader, infrastructure-wide scope than Yuki's data-warehouse focus.

Direct peers

• CloudZero: Cloud cost management platform with strong Snowflake and Kubernetes coverage, providing engineering-aware cost allocation and optimization. Competes with Yuki for Snowflake FinOps budgets, though typically positioned broader across AWS services.
• Unravel Data: Data observability and FinOps platform purpose-built for Snowflake, Databricks, and BigQuery. Most direct competitor to Yuki on Snowflake cost and performance optimization, with overlapping query-level routing and workload analytics capabilities.
• Cast AI: Automated Kubernetes cost optimization and performance platform using real-time autoscaling and bin-packing. Comparable in approach (autonomous real-time compute routing for cost reduction) but focused on Kubernetes rather than data warehouses.
• Vantage: Cloud cost intelligence platform with native Snowflake and BigQuery support, focused on cost visibility, anomaly detection, and commitment management. Comparable buyer persona (data engineering and FinOps leaders) and overlapping Snowflake cost reporting features.
• ProsperOps: AWS Reserved Instance and Savings Plans automation platform extending into Snowflake cost optimization through Marketplace and FinOps tooling. Adjacent competitor for cloud data warehouse cost commitments and automated savings.

Emerging players

• Monte Carlo Data: Data observability platform for data warehouses and lakes (Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks) with growing FinOps-adjacent capabilities. Overlaps with Yuki in Snowflake/BigQuery persona and the data-engineering buyer, though focused on data reliability rather than compute cost.
