aws.amazon.com

Amazon Bedrock is AWS's model-API layer: 18 provider brands (Anthropic, OpenAI, Meta, Mistral, DeepSeek, Google, NVIDIA, xAI, Qwen, Amazon Nova and more) behind one AWS account, priced per 1M tokens with a 50% batch discount, tiered cross-region pricing and reserved/provisioned capacity. Bedrock itself has no standing free tier — new AWS accounts get $100 in credits at sign-up plus up to $100 more over a 6-month free plan.

// pros

  • The largest model menu in this directory: 18 provider brands — Anthropic, OpenAI, Meta, Mistral, DeepSeek, Google, NVIDIA, xAI, Qwen, Moonshot, MiniMax, Stability, Writer, TwelveLabs, Luma, AI21, Z AI plus Amazon's own Nova — behind one AWS account and one bill.
  • Batch inference at 50% of on-demand across supported models, on the same API — no separate service to adopt.
  • The deepest free on-ramp of the big clouds: new AWS accounts get $100 in credits at sign-up plus up to $100 more over a 6-month free plan, with no charges unless you convert to paid.
  • Cross-region inference scopes (global, geo, in-region) trade price for data residency on the same model — choose the scope per workload.
  • A capacity ladder under one account: on-demand, reserved-tier pricing, and provisioned throughput via the account team.

// cons

  • Bedrock has no standing free tier — after the 6-month free plan (or when credits exhaust), every call is paid, and free-plan accounts close automatically.
  • The same model can carry several valid price points (scope × tier: global/geo/regional × standard/priority/flex/batch) — cost comparisons must name the deployment scope.
  • Some models are non-GA and access-gated (e.g. Claude Mythos requires approval) — a catalog listing is not an immediate entitlement.
  • AWS onboarding is heavier than a lab API: account, IAM, region and billing setup before the first token.

If you're on AWS (or willing to be), the most economical path to frontier models: spend the $200 free-plan credits on benchmarking, run offline work through Batch (−50%), and default to global cross-region when residency allows.

// faq
$ Does Amazon Bedrock have a free tier?

No. Amazon Bedrock does not offer a meaningful free tier — entry requires payment (pay-as-you-go or a plan). We mark this explicitly rather than showing a misleading zero.

$ How much does Amazon Bedrock cost per 1M tokens?

The cheapest model we track at Amazon Bedrock is $0.060 per 1M input tokens and $0.240 per 1M output tokens. This is normalized from Amazon Bedrock's published pricing — verify with the provider before purchasing, since prices change frequently.

$ Is Amazon Bedrock safe to use?

Uprouter rates Amazon Bedrock as low risk. Low risk: first-party from AWS, with a single authoritative pricing page stating per-model, per-tier and per-region prices, the batch discount and the free-account terms (verified 2026-09-16: $100 at sign-up + up to $100 earned, 6-month plan). The exposure is cost complexity — scope × tier combinations can surprise a bill — not vendor opacity. Risk ratings are editorial, evidence-based, and never influenced by affiliate relationships.

Uprouter runs its own probes; best-effort, not a guarantee. Probe results depend on our network location and cadence — for production, always use the provider’s own status page.

risk_&_confidence

Low risk
90%

Low risk: first-party from AWS, with a single authoritative pricing page stating per-model, per-tier and per-region prices, the batch discount and the free-account terms (verified 2026-09-16: $100 at sign-up + up to $100 earned, 6-month plan). The exposure is cost complexity — scope × tier combinations can surprise a bill — not vendor opacity.

Confidence reflects how much verifiable evidence (official docs, probe history, community reports) backs this entry. Risk is our editorial assessment of operator reliability and terms — not financial advice.
