Amazon Web Services is launching an AI agent marketplace

Amazon Web Services is stepping into the AI agent economy with the launch of its own AI agent marketplace. In a partnership with Anthropic, AWS aims to let developers and businesses deploy AI agents that can execute tasks autonomously across cloud services. The marketplace will live on Amazon Bedrock, AWS's foundation for hosting generative AI models, including Claude, and will support agents built with Anthropic’s tech right out of the gate. Rather than training models from scratch, businesses can browse, select, and run pre-built autonomous agents designed to do everything from processing insurance claims to managing data pipelines.

According to AWS's VP of AI, Swami Sivasubramanian, this is about reducing friction: “Developers want to build AI agents without worrying about infrastructure.” Agents can be composed of multiple tools and instructions and be given secure access to enterprise systems, making them function more like digital coworkers than simple chatbots. Anthropic’s involvement positions Claude as a first-class citizen in the ecosystem, though AWS says other foundation models will eventually be supported.

Unlike OpenAI’s GPTs or Meta’s open-source agent platforms, AWS is tightly focused on enterprise deployment. The marketplace is aimed at production-ready use cases with governance, permissions, and secure APIs built in. What’s different here is the intent. AWS isn’t just selling compute, it’s selling the autonomy layer on top. That shift, from infrastructure to intention, could reshape how teams build software and who gets to build it.

Takeaways at a Glance:

• Agents can perform end-to-end tasks, including accessing APIs and databases

• Anthropic’s Claude is the default, with more models planned

• The platform focuses on secure enterprise use cases

• Agents are configurable via tools, instructions, and policy management

• Bedrock hosts the agents and ensures scale + governance

What We Think About It:

• This is AWS turning AI from model demos into infrastructure. The involvement of Anthropic gives Claude real distribution. It also pressures OpenAI to build more business-facing autonomy solutions within its ecosystem.

What You Can Do Right Now:

• Start noticing which repetitive tasks in your day-to-day work could be handled by software. Think about emails you draft repeatedly, files you organize, or reports you generate. AI agents are being designed to take on exactly those kinds of tasks. If you’re curious, explore Amazon Bedrock or Claude’s tools to see what these agents can already do today.
