Frequently Asked Questions

How does Amazon Bedrock pricing work?

Amazon Bedrock pricing is based on usage with no upfront commitments. For text models, you pay per 1,000 input and output tokens. Image generation models charge per image, while video models charge per second. Tool features like Guardrails and Flows have separate per-use pricing. Prices vary by model provider and AWS region.

What are the costs for different Bedrock foundation models?

Bedrock model pricing varies significantly by provider and model size. For example, in us-east-1:

  • Claude 3.5 Sonnet: $0.003/1K input, $0.015/1K output tokens
  • Llama 3 70B: $0.00099/1K input, $0.00099/1K output tokens
  • Amazon Nova Pro: $0.0008/1K input, $0.0032/1K output tokens
  • Mistral Large: $0.004/1K input, $0.012/1K output tokens

Use the calculator above to see current pricing for all models in your preferred region.

How much does Bedrock Guardrails cost?

Bedrock Guardrails pricing depends on the policy type. Content filters cost $0.15/1K text units, topic filters cost $0.15/1K units, sensitive information detection (PII) costs $0.10/1K units, and contextual grounding costs $0.10/1K units. Word filters are free. Image content filtering costs $0.75/1K images. A text unit is approximately 1,000 characters.

What is Bedrock Flows pricing?

Bedrock Flows charges $0.035 per 1,000 node transitions. A node transition occurs each time your workflow moves from one step to another. This is in addition to any model inference costs. Flows is ideal for building multi-step AI workflows with visual orchestration.

How does Intelligent Prompt Routing pricing work?

Intelligent Prompt Routing costs $1.00 per 1,000 routing requests. It automatically selects the optimal model based on your prompt, balancing cost and quality. The routing cost is separate from the actual model inference cost. This feature can reduce overall costs by selecting cheaper models when appropriate.

What Bedrock pricing tiers are available?

Amazon Bedrock offers several pricing tiers:

  • Standard: Pay-as-you-go with no commitments (shown in this calculator)
  • Priority: Premium pricing for lower latency
  • Flex: Discounted pricing for non-urgent, flexible workloads
  • Reserved: Committed capacity with significant discounts for consistent usage
  • Batch: 50% off standard pricing for asynchronous processing

Prompt Caching offers up to 90% savings on cached tokens for supported models.

How can I reduce Amazon Bedrock costs?

Key strategies to optimize Bedrock costs:

  • Use prompt caching: Up to 90% savings on repeated prompts
  • Choose smaller models: Use Haiku or Nova Lite for simpler tasks
  • Batch inference: 50% discount for non-time-sensitive workloads
  • Intelligent Prompt Routing: Auto-select cost-effective models
  • Optimize prompts: Shorter, focused prompts reduce token costs

Tip

Stop AWS bill surprises from happening.

Most infrastructure changes look harmless until you see next month's AWS bill. CloudBurn prevents this by analyzing the cost impact of your AWS CDK changes directly in GitHub pull requests, catching expensive mistakes during code review when fixes are quick, not weeks later when they're costly and risky.
