I made a token count check app using Streamlit in Snowflake (SiS)

Introduction

Hello, I'm a Sales Engineer at Snowflake. I'd like to share some of my experiences and experiments with you through various posts. In this article, I'll show you how to create an app using Streamlit in Snowflake to check token counts and estimate costs for Cortex LLM.

Note: This post represents my personal views and not those of Snowflake.

What is Streamlit in Snowflake (SiS)?

Streamlit is a Python library that allows you to create web UIs with simple Python code, eliminating the need for HTML/CSS/JavaScript. You can see examples in the App Gallery.

Streamlit in Snowflake enables you to develop and run Streamlit web apps directly on Snowflake. It's easy to use with just a Snowflake account and great for integrating Snowflake table data into web apps.

What is Snowflake Cortex?

Snowflake Cortex is a suite of generative AI features in Snowflake. Cortex LLM allows you to call large language models running on Snowflake using simple functions in SQL or Python.

Large Language Model (LLM) Functions (Snowflake Cortex) (Official Snowflake Documentation)

Feature Overview

Features

• Users can select a Cortex LLM model
• Display character and token counts for user-input text
• Show the ratio of tokens to characters
• Calculate estimated cost based on Snowflake credit pricing

Note: Cortex LLM pricing table (PDF)

Prerequisites

• Snowflake account with Cortex LLM access
• snowflake-ml-python 1.1.2 or later

Note: Cortex LLM region availability (Official Snowflake Documentation)

            st.warning("The selected model is not supported by Snowflake's token counting feature.")
    else:
        st.warning("Please enter some text.")

Conclusion

This app makes it easier to estimate costs for LLM workloads, especially when dealing with languages like Japanese where there's often a gap between character count and token count. I hope you find it useful!
