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.

Thrilled to introduce a new addition to the Amazon Nova family of foundation models – Amazon Nova Sonic – a speech-to-speech model that makes it dramatically easier for developers to build voice-powered applications and AI agents that are more useful, natural, and engaging. Since launching Nova, we have been moving at lightning speed, guided by our customers’ needs. One thing we’ve heard loud and clear: building voice applications is far too complex. It’s like playing telephone between three different models – speech recognition to convert voice to text, a language model to understand and generate a text response, and text-to-speech to generate voice again. Even if it works, nuance is often lost, making the conversation with the AI feel unnatural and disconnected. Nova Sonic solves this by unifying all three steps – speech recognition, understanding, and generation – into a single architecture. This allows it to model not just what is spoken, but how it’s spoken, enabling more context-aware and dynamic responses. Nova Sonic also produces a text transcript so that developers can easily integrate their tools, APIs, and proprietary knowledge into their voice application. With Nova Sonic, developers can reimagine building AI agents that truly understand context, maintain natural conversation flow, and take action on user’s behalf. End users can simply say, “I need to cancel my flight this weekend,” and have natural back-and-forth conversation about their options. Available in American and British English in Amazon Bedrock today, Nova Sonic is the most accurate, fastest, and least expensive model in its class (and there are only a few in this space today). Customers like ASAPP, Education First, Stats Perform, and our own internal teams with early access to Nova Sonic, are ready to move from prototypes to production in a wide variety of use cases, including customer service automation, education, healthcare, and sports. Can't wait to see what developers will build with Nova Sonic to make AI truly accessible to everyone! https://amzn.to/3Gd2Mj5
