Build a voice travel concierge with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, Managed Knowledge Base and Nova Sonic

Airlines already have apps and websites where travelers check flights, pick seats, and manage bookings, and adding a natural voice layer opens those tasks to spoken requests. With this voice layer, a traveler can change a seat or check a delay by speaking, without leaving the app or navigating through screens. Building it requires careful … Read more

Introducing GLM 5.3 on Amazon Bedrock

Coding and agentic workloads are asking more of AI models than ever: refactor a repository spanning hundreds of files, sustain a multi-hour agentic workflow without losing context, and reason through complex systems problems with tool use at every step. Meeting those demands with open-weight models has historically meant provisioning and operating your own inference infrastructure. … Read more

Making Amazon Quick enterprise-ready: Automated, auditable cross-account resource promotion

Amazon Quick is Amazon’s agentic AI companion built for work. You build agents that reason over your data, call action connectors, and carry multi-step tasks to completion. Promoting those resources (chat agents, action connectors, knowledge bases, flows, and spaces) from a development to a production AWS account, the way you would any other application, has … Read more

Agentic retrieval with LangChain and Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases

When a user asks the support assistant, a Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) application built with LangChain to compare two products across three dimensions, they’re effectively posing six questions simultaneously. Similarity search uses a single query vector to encapsulate all the intents. The retriever then generates the best approximation of the average of those intents. The … Read more

From supply chain planning to financial … Read more

Sweep thousands of leases for compliance using Amazon Quick and the Adjudicated Query pattern

Checking tens of thousands of apartment leases against constantly changing state landlord-tenant laws, and proving you actually checked all of them, has been beyond the reach of most compliance teams. But with generative AI in Amazon Quick, paired with the right backend, it’s now possible. In this post, we introduce a design pattern called Adjudicated … Read more

Add secure Web Search to Claude Desktop with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore

Claude Desktop on Amazon Bedrock provides powerful AI assistance, but without integrated web search, responses are limited to the model’s training knowledge cutoff. When you need current information, such as recent documentation updates, live pricing, or weather updates, the model can’t retrieve it on its own. Amazon Bedrock AgentCore is a platform to build, connect, … Read more

Fine-tune a search agent with multi-turn RL on Amazon SageMaker AI

Search agents powered by large language models (LLMs) are transforming how enterprises retrieve information. Rather than requiring users to craft the perfect query, a search agent autonomously decides what to search for, which retrieval strategy to use, and when to stop searching. It does this across multiple rounds of interaction, refining its approach based on … Read more

Serve live, governed data in AI-built apps with Amazon Quick

Quick Apps could already bring live data into an app from connectors and content sources: action connectors (services like Jira, Slack, and Google Drive), Spaces documents, web search, and AI inference all run at view time, not build time. The solution introduces live structured data from your data lakes, databases, and other analytics data stores. … Read more

Build agent memory with NVIDIA NeMo Agent Toolkit and Amazon S3 Vectors

In my previous post: Building persistent memory for multi-agent AI systems with Amazon S3 Vectors, we explored why memory engineering is the foundational discipline for production multi-agent systems.

Building ambient agents with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore: From event-driven signals to human-in-the-loop workflows

Teams that process documents at scale know the routine: files land in storage, someone notices, opens each one, decides what it needs, and routes it for review. Monitoring alerts queue up the same way, waiting for a person to act on them. The hours lost to manual triage are the operational problem ambient agents solve. … Read more

Implementing Multi-Environment Access for Claude Platform on AWS

You need Claude Platform on AWS (CPonAWS) inference from three environments: production workloads on AWS, developer laptops for local iteration, and external services on other cloud providers or on-premises continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines. Each environment has different authentication requirements, but all should share a single subscription with workspace-level isolation between production and … Read more

Query claims in natural language with Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases

Claim answers are scattered across adjuster diary entries, repair estimates, police reports, payment ledgers, and scanned attachments rather than one searchable field. A policyholder might ask whether a claim was approved, while an adjuster might need every open auto claim over $10,000 from last month. Both tasks require finding and combining evidence quickly and accurately. … Read more

Build a multi-agent music production pipeline on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime Instances

As organizations move from single-purpose agents to multi-agent systems, the infrastructure requirements change.

Building an AI-powered contract intelligence platform with Amazon Quick and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore

You’re a director of contracting, responsible for hundreds, maybe thousands, of vendor contracts. Each one is packed with critical data: contract values, expiration dates, signing status, and key contacts. With that information locked inside PDFs, you and your team spend hours manually extracting it, maintaining spreadsheets, and fielding the same recurring questions: “Which vendor are … Read more

How Condé Nast built multimodal video discovery with Amazon Bedrock

Condé Nast’s editorial teams had no fast way to do multimodal video discovery. They were spending an average of 250 minutes per content discovery task, manually scrubbing through a library of more than 140,000 videos.
