AWS Launching AI Agent Marketplace Next Week with Anthropic
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is all set to launch its much-anticipated AI Agent Marketplace next week on July 15, 2025, during its AWS Summit in New York City.
This new platform will work like an app store but for AI agents.
What’s the AI Agent Marketplace?
It’s a one-stop shop for businesses to discover, deploy, and manage AI-powered agents, software tools that can work independently to handle tasks like Customer support, Data analysis, Report generation, scheduling, Code writing, Product recommendations.
Think of it as downloading a chatbot, virtual assistant, or workflow manager, customized for your business from a storefront right inside AWS.
Anthropic Joins as Launch Partner
- AWS has teamed up with Anthropic, the maker of the Claude AI models, as one of its first major partners.
- Anthropic will offer Claude-based agents through the marketplace.
- These agents are built to be safe, reliable, and customizable for enterprise use.
- This partnership builds on Amazon’s existing investment of up to $4 billion in Anthropic.
What Makes This Marketplace Special?
- According to AWS insiders, this agent marketplace could become a multi-billion-dollar business for Amazon.
- It offers plug-and-play agents that work across AWS services like Lambda, SageMaker, and Bedrock.
- Developers and startups can list their agents and earn revenue, while AWS takes a small commission—similar to Apple’s App Store model.
- AWS aims to make agents “composable”, meaning businesses can chain together multiple agents for complex tasks.
A Growing Rivalry
AWS is now directly competing with Google Cloud, Microsoft and OpenAI (through Azure AI Studio), Salesforce, ServiceNow, and others offering AI agent platforms.
But what gives AWS an edge is massive cloud user base, deep integrations with AWS tools and the trusted enterprise reputation AWS has built over years.
Why This Matters for Businesses
- Easier access to powerful, ready-made AI tools.
- Less need for in-house development.
- Faster AI adoption without complex setup.
- A growing choice of third-party AI agents from startups and big vendors.
What’s Next?
The marketplace goes live on July 15, starting with dozens of agents including from Anthropic.
More developers are expected to onboard in the coming weeks.
AWS is likely to expand this model to other AI tools and services later this year.
