## How Snowflake Marketplace works

Providers publish listings that many Snowflake customers can access. Listings can be free or paid, and providers can publish samples. Data is shared live and, in Snowflake's words, without creating copies, so neither side builds pipelines ([Snowflake documentation](https://docs.snowflake.com/en/collaboration/collaboration-marketplace-about)).

## Where it fits for AI data

Live sharing suits structured, frequently updated tables. AI training usually needs a fixed snapshot that the buyer copies into its own training infrastructure, so check how a marketplace license handles copies made for training. Unstructured data such as audio, video and long documents is usually delivered other ways.

## Things to check before you sign

- Whether the buyer may copy data out of the share to train models, and what happens after the license ends.
- Whether your data is structured tables or unstructured files.
- Who can see your listing and request access.

## Questions

### Does Snowflake Marketplace copy my data?

Snowflake says providers share live data without creating copies. A buyer that trains a model will still usually copy data into its own systems, so your license should cover that.
