Agentic AI development platform (IDE, CLI, web, mobile) that turns prompts into executable specs, validates code with property-based testing and runs parallel agents across large codebases.
Platform
Agentic-AI enterprise IT transformation workbench that accelerates cloud migration, application modernization (mainframe, Windows, custom code) and continuous tech-debt reduction.
Production AI-agent operational platform (framework- and model-agnostic) providing security controls, tool integration, debugging and evaluation for deployed agents.
Cloud contact-centre service, formerly simply 'Amazon Connect', now positioned as an agentic-AI customer-experience solution: AI agents and intelligent routing across voice, chat, email, SMS, web and WhatsApp, designed on a no-code canvas, with real-time performance tracking for agents and supervisors.
AWS's unified platform for building, training and deploying machine learning and generative AI models.
Data service
A managed AWS enterprise search service that answers natural-language queries and powers retrieval-augmented generation over indexed content.
IBM
Application
