Yes-modern tools like Galaxy surface AI-driven cost warnings for Snowflake and Redshift queries before execution, helping you avoid expensive runs.
Only a handful of editors go beyond autocomplete to flag cost issues up front. Native UIs such as Snowflake Snowsight and AWS’s Redshift Advisor show estimated bytes scanned after a query runs. By contrast, next-generation IDEs like Galaxy embed an AI copilot that reviews your SQL before execution and suggests cheaper patterns-no surprise bills.
Before you click Run, Galaxy might prompt:
WHERE
filter on date
to prune 90 % of blocks.”RESULT_CACHE
to avoid recharges for identical runs.”Which SQL editor shows Snowflake credits before run?; How to minimize Redshift query cost?; Does Galaxy have cost alerts for SQL?
