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. A lone agent handling customer queries can run in a serverless environment with short-lived sessions. But when you need three agents collaborating on a creative workflow that spans several days, sharing context and building on each other’s output, serverless sessions that cap … Read more

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. They relied on titles and descriptions to find relevant clips. In a media environment where speed-to-market directly determines revenue capture, … Read more

Scaling MoE reinforcement learning on Amazon EKS with EFA and DeepEP with 40% more throughput

When you post-train a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model with Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) or Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) at scale, three simultaneous challenges emerge. The first requires coordinating heterogeneous compute for rollout generation and policy training. Second, sustaining high-throughput communication across hundreds of accelerators. And third, dynamically orchestrating every subsystem to keep them … Read more

Accelerate multimodal RL training with SkyRL on Amazon SageMaker HyperPod

Reinforcement learning (RL) post-training is becoming a standard step in building capable language model agents. Models learn to reason and act across sequences of steps by generating trajectories, receiving rewards, and updating their policy based on outcomes. Running this at scale, across multiple nodes with hundreds of GPU-hours of rollouts per training run, requires persistent … Read more

Multi-Region training with Amazon SageMaker HyperPod and Qumulo

With Amazon SageMaker HyperPod and Qumulo, you can place training compute in one AWS Region and keep your dataset in another. Training large AI models requires massive GPU capacity, but your ideal compute resources and your training data don’t always reside in the same AWS Region. Accessing data across Regions adds network latency and transfer … Read more

Speaker-labeled transcription with WhisperX on SageMaker AI

Any team working with spoken audio hits the same wall with generic speech-to-text. Think contact-center calls, all-hands meetings, podcasts, depositions, and broadcast media. These workloads need two things that standard transcription gets wrong. First, timestamps land at the utterance level, off by several seconds. Second, there’s no reliable answer to “who said what.” Those gaps … Read more

Build a multi-account AI agent with AgentCore Gateway and MCP

Enterprises increasingly want AI agents that can reason over data spread across many AWS accounts without copying or centralizing it. Each team keeps its data in its own account for good reasons: clear ownership, scope isolation, and independent deployment lifecycles. But an agent that sees only one account’s data delivers limited value, and connecting it … Read more

Evaluate skill-equipped agents with Strands Evals and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore

General-purpose agents handle a broad range of tasks, but you still need them to follow the procedures that run your business: compliance checks, document-processing workflows, escalation policies, engineering conventions. Encoding all of that in one system prompt or in application logic gets hard to maintain and update. Skills are a modular alternative. A skill is … Read more
