OpenAI’s latest AI models and its Codex coding agent became available on Amazon Web Services (AWS) through the Amazon Bedrock platform, the companies announced in 2026. The move gives AWS customers direct access to OpenAI’s frontier models to build AI agents within Amazon’s cloud environment.
The partnership involves OpenAI and Amazon Web Services, two of the most prominent names in the AI and cloud computing industries. The availability of OpenAI’s tools on Amazon Bedrock marks a notable expansion of where developers and enterprises can access OpenAI’s technology.
The development follows a change to OpenAI’s existing contract with Microsoft, which had previously been the primary cloud partner for OpenAI’s services. The source does not detail the specific terms of that contract change.
According to the source, the partnership is aimed at boosting OpenAI’s computing power and expanding its enterprise business. By making its models accessible on AWS, OpenAI may reach a broader base of enterprise customers who already operate within Amazon’s cloud infrastructure.
For businesses and developers, the practical implication is that they can now build AI-powered agents using OpenAI’s models directly on AWS, without needing to go outside the Amazon cloud ecosystem. This could simplify deployment for organizations already relying on AWS for their infrastructure needs.
