Pricing
PaidAmazon Bedrock uses consumption-based pricing with no upfront commitment for on-demand use. Foundation model inference is billed per 1M input/output tokens, with rates varying by provider and model — from lightweight models like Amazon Nova Micro or Meta Llama 3 8B at a fraction of a cent per 1,000 tokens, to frontier models like Claude and GPT-5.6 ranging from $0.22 to $13.75 per 1M input tokens and $1.32 to $82.50 per 1M output tokens depending on context window.
Batch inference offers roughly 50% savings over on-demand pricing for select models, and a Flex tier offers similar discounts with relaxed latency requirements, while a Priority tier costs about 75% more for guaranteed low latency. Provisioned Throughput pricing (hourly, with 1- or 6-month commitment discounts) suits teams needing dedicated, guaranteed capacity rather than variable on-demand access.
Additional Bedrock features are billed separately: Guardrails charge per 1,000 text units (~$0.07–$0.17), Knowledge Bases charge for index storage ($5/GB/month) plus per-1,000-query retrieval fees, Model Evaluation charges standard token rates plus $0.21 per human evaluation task, and Custom Model Import is billed per unit-minute plus storage. AWS offers up to $200 in free credits for new customers.
FreemiumPro: €12/month or €7/month (billed yearly at €84/year) for 500 credits/month. Ultra: €64/month or €44.66/month (billed yearly at €253/year per seat) for 2500 credits/month. Enterprise: Custom pricing. Limited free trial credits are available, with full credit balance unlocking after a paid plan subscription.

Amazon Bedrock Pros & Cons
Pros
- Access to models from nearly every major AI lab through one consistent API and billing relationship
- No infrastructure to provision or manage, with automatic scaling built into the serverless architecture
- Strong compliance posture out of the box, useful for regulated industries like finance and healthcare
- Pay-per-use pricing means no cost for idle capacity on on-demand inference
- AgentCore and Knowledge Bases reduce the engineering lift of building production RAG and agent systems
- Deep integration with the broader AWS ecosystem for teams already building on AWS
Cons
- Usage-based pricing across dozens of models and add-on features makes cost estimation genuinely complex
- Best suited to teams already inside the AWS ecosystem; using it standalone adds a real AWS learning curve
- Some frontier models arrive on Bedrock later than on their original provider's own API
- Provisioned Throughput commitments can be expensive relative to smaller-scale on-demand usage
- Guardrails, Knowledge Bases, and Evaluation are billed as separate line items, which can obscure total spend
