OpenAI and Amazon announced a multi-year strategic partnership to accelerate AI innovation for enterprises, startups, and end consumers around the world.
About us
Amazon is guided by four principles: customer obsession rather than competitor focus, passion for invention, commitment to operational excellence, and long-term thinking. We are driven by the excitement of building technologies, inventing products, and providing services that change lives. We embrace new ways of doing things, make decisions quickly, and are not afraid to fail. We have the scope and capabilities of a large company, and the spirit and heart of a small one. Together, Amazonians research and develop new technologies from Amazon Web Services to Alexa on behalf of our customers: shoppers, sellers, content creators, and developers around the world. Our mission is to be Earth's most customer-centric company. Our actions, goals, projects, programs, and inventions begin and end with the customer top of mind. You'll also hear us say that at Amazon, it's always "Day 1." What do we mean? That our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon's very first day - to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and focus on delighting our customers.

Excited about our new strategic partnership with OpenAI. Developers and companies of all kinds are eager to run services powered by OpenAI models on AWS, and our unique collaboration will provide a stateful runtime environment for them that’s powered by OpenAI’s frontier intelligence on Amazon Bedrock. OpenAI is also going big on our custom Trainium chips, which are 30-40% more price performant than comparable GPUs, to power their growth. Both the leading AI labs now have made significant commitments to Trainium, which is gaining a lot of momentum. We’ll be the exclusive 3P cloud distribution provider for OpenAI Frontier (which enables organizations to build, deploy, and manage teams of AI agents). And finally, we’re excited about our investment in OpenAI — it’s an extremely talented team with great products, IP, and vision for how they can continue to serve customers and enterprises. We think they’ll be one of the big winners in AI, we can help them grow, and we believe we’ll earn a strong return for Amazon over the long term. https://lnkd.in/gWs5W5Pf

You can take the Brazilian out of Brazil, but you can't take the Carnaval out of the Brazilian. ✨ While millions celebrate Carnival across Brazil, the energy and spirit of the festival can be felt far beyond its borders. We love when our global teams show up and celebrate their culture and traditions, which always brings a little more energy — and sometimes even a few more sequins – to the office. 🎉

Ever taken a conference call from the boundary of a cricket pitch? At Amazon's Hyderabad campus—our largest office building worldwide—Amazonians have a full-size cricket pitch just steps from their desks. It's part of how we design spaces that support both focus and recharge, creating environments where teams can collaborate, stay energized, and do their best work.

Today we’re adding Claude Sonnet 4.6 to Amazon Bedrock. Sonnet 4.6 delivers strong performance across coding, agents, and professional workflows, with cost and token efficiency that makes high-volume deployment practical. It’s particularly well suited for browser-based automation and multi-step orchestration in real business systems. This builds on our launch of Claude Opus 4.6 earlier this month, Anthropic’s most powerful model for demanding coding projects and complex enterprise agents. Opus 4.6 supports long-horizon reasoning and large context windows, helping customers move from experimentation to production-scale task completion. Our focus remains simple: give customers the best model choice, integrated with the performance, security, and scale of Amazon Web Services (AWS). That work continues through our partnership with Anthropic. More here: https://lnkd.in/g3ueh-zB?

If speedy deliveries were a sport, we'd be taking home the gold 🥇 In 2025, Amazon delivered to Prime members around the world at our fastest speeds ever—marking three consecutive years of record-breaking performance.

Whether it's same-day essentials or next-day arrivals, our delivery partners are world-class athletes in their own right, going the distance to serve customers every single day.

One of the best parts of my job is getting to visit teams in the field. After more than 180 sites, I’ve had the privilege of meeting thousands of Amazonians. I love learning about the amazing things they’re working on, celebrating their successes, and thanking them for everything they do for our customers. And those visits have now inspired something new. Learn & Be Curious with Doug Herrington is a new podcast where we attempt to share some of the best parts of these visits — the learning, the energy, and the great conversations. I’ll be joined by fellow Amazonians as we go behind the scenes for a look at Amazon’s biggest innovations and our peculiar culture. The first episode just dropped, and I was thrilled to sit down with Hannah McClellan Richards to talk about the magic behind Amazon Pharmacy. Listen now: https://lnkd.in/gS_mmdK9

What do you think of the team’s idea for Valentine’s Day? ❤️ Sadly, we can’t actually put your ex’s phone through Kindle durability testing. But we can show you how we test our own devices to make sure they’re tough enough for real life. From the simulated purse test to strength tests that push the glass to its limits, this is the work our teams do every day to build great products. Brutal, but necessary. Happy Valentine’s Day—spending mine with my wife and kids. Big shoutout to Guneet Sethi and Rob Wieler for giving us a peek at what they’re up to at our labs in California.
