In this post, you will learn how to build a voice agent that handles appointment reminder conversations using Amazon Nova 2 Sonic and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore. The agent authenticates patients by voice, manages appointments (confirm, cancel, or reschedule), collects pre-visit health information, and escalates to human staff when needed. You handle routine calls at scale, which can help reduce no-show rates. This sample focuses on the agentic side of the problem: voice conversation and tool orchestration. A browser-based interface is included for testing. To connect the agent to actual phone lines for outbound dialing, you would integrate a telephony service such as Amazon Connect Customer.

In this post, we demonstrate the architecture and approach Loka used to solve a common frustration: robotic, slow voice assistants that cause customers to hang up, damaging brand reputation and driving up support costs.

In this post, we walk through the problem space, our architecture on Amazon Bedrock and Amazon OpenSearch Serverless, the evaluation methodology we built on OpenStreetMap ground truth, four experiments that compared embedding models, fusion strategies, captioning, and search methods, and the practical guidance you can apply when building a similar system. You’ll learn which design choices move the needle for geospatial semantic search, including why Amazon Nova Multimodal Embeddings delivered the highest F1 scores across both benchmark queries in our evaluation. The work described here evolved into Vexcel Intelligence, a searchable imagery product.

In this post, we walk you through the Nova Sonic Test Harness, an open source framework that we built to solve both problems. It serves as a rapid iteration tool for tuning system prompts and tool configurations (run a conversation, see results, adjust, repeat) and as a comprehensive evaluation framework for validating voice agent quality at scale. It runs complete multi-turn conversations with Amazon Nova Sonic automatically, evaluates them using LLM-as-judge techniques, and can even detect cases where the model’s audio output doesn’t match its text output (audio hallucinations). No microphone required.

Fine-tuning for domain-specific tasks means improving performance in one area without degrading the model’s general capabilities, and getting that balance right is harder than it looks. This post walks through how to navigate that balance, from selecting the right customization strategy for your data and task, to configuring the training parameters that most influence outcomes, like learning rate, batch size, and checkpointing. We also cover the common mistakes that lead to wasted training runs and how to catch them early, so you can improve domain performance without degrading general capabilities or burning through compute on avoidable failures.

By the end, you will know how to improve domain performance without degrading general capabilities and how to avoid the expensive failures that come from getting the balance wrong.

In this post, we’ll walk through implementing object detection with Amazon Nova 2 Lite. You’ll learn how to deploy an object detection application using Amazon Bedrock, AWS Lambda, and Amazon API Gateway. You’ll also learn how to craft effective prompts, process structured JSON output, and visualize results. We explore practical applications across manufacturing, agriculture, and logistics.

This post combines learnings from LangChain’s work on evaluating deep agents and Anthropic’s guide to demystifying evals for AI agents into a practical guide. In this post, you will learn how to: 1) apply five evaluation patterns for deep agents, 2) build offline evaluations using pytest and LangSmith, and 3) configure online monitoring for production. The walkthrough uses a text-to-SQL deep agent with Amazon Bedrock for the full development to production lifecycle.

In this post, you will learn what Nova Act offers, how HIPAA eligibility applies to agentic AI, and how to get started.

In this post, we demonstrate how to build an AI-powered recruitment assistant using Amazon Bedrock that brings efficiencies to candidate evaluation, generates personalized interview questions, and provides data-driven insights for human hiring decisions. This post presents a reference architecture for learning purposes — not a production-ready solution. Amazon Bedrock and the AWS services used here are general-purpose tools that customers can combine to support a wide variety of use cases, including recruitment workflows. The architecture demonstrates one possible approach; customers should adapt it to their specific requirements.

In this post, you’ll learn how to use Amazon Nova Sonic, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, and Strands BidiAgent to build scalable, maintainable voice agents that handle these challenges efficiently, resulting in more responsive and intelligent customer interactions. We’ll explore three popular architectural patterns for voice agents, highlighting their trade-offs and best practices for minimizing latency.
