Snowflake. Snowflake sells the data cloud: companies store and analyze their data there, paying by consumption (not flat subscription). It grows fast because data never stops growing — and AI makes it even more valuable.
Datadog. Datadog is the platform companies use to watch their cloud systems: it monitors servers, applications, logs and security in a single pane. When something breaks in a digital company's infrastructure, Datadog is usually what sounds the alarm.

What this comparison doesn't tell you
The score measures business quality, not whether the stock is cheap or expensive: the better company can be the worse investment if you overpay. For the valuation verdict, enter each one's current price in the analyzer:
