AWS AI Agent Funded Assessment: What's Included & How to Qualify
AWS is actively funding AI agent assessments for qualifying companies through their partner network. Here's exactly what you get — and what it takes to qualify.
Key Fact:
This assessment is funded by AWS — not your budget. Qualifying companies pay $0 out of pocket for a comprehensive AI agent readiness evaluation delivered by AWS-certified architects.
What's Included in the Funded Assessment
The AWS AI Agent Funded Assessment is a structured engagement delivered over 2-4 weeks. It's not a sales pitch — it's a technical deep-dive into where AI agents can create measurable ROI in your business.
Phase 1: Discovery & Process Mapping
- Interview key stakeholders across operations, customer service, and engineering
- Map existing workflows to identify high-ROI automation candidates
- Quantify current costs of manual processes (labor hours, error rates, cycle times)
- Identify data sources and integration points for AI agent deployment
Phase 2: AI Agent Architecture Design
- Custom architecture blueprint using Amazon Bedrock, Lambda, and supporting services
- Agent workflow design — what the AI agent does, what triggers it, and how it escalates
- Security and compliance framework (IAM, data boundaries, audit trails)
- Integration plan with your existing tech stack
Phase 3: Business Case & Roadmap
- ROI projection with conservative, moderate, and aggressive scenarios
- Implementation timeline broken into sprints
- AWS service cost estimates for production deployment
- Executive-ready presentation for internal stakeholders
What You Walk Away With
- AI Agent Architecture Document — Production-ready technical blueprint
- ROI Analysis — Quantified business case with payback timeline
- Implementation Roadmap — Sprint-by-sprint build plan
- AWS Cost Model — Monthly run-rate projections at scale
- Executive Presentation — Board-ready slides with your data
How to Qualify
AWS funds these assessments through their partner investment programs. Not every company qualifies — here's what AWS looks for:
| Criteria | Requirement |
|---|---|
| AWS Usage | Active AWS account (or committed to migrating workloads) |
| Company Size | Mid-market to enterprise (50+ employees or $10M+ revenue) |
| AI Readiness | Clear business problem AI agents could solve (not just "exploring AI") |
| Decision Authority | Sponsor with budget authority to act on assessment findings |
| Timeline | Intent to implement within 6 months of assessment completion |
Industries That Qualify
We've delivered funded assessments across:
- FinTech & Lending — Underwriting automation, compliance agents, document processing
- Hospitality & Gaming — Customer engagement, loyalty optimization, revenue management
- Legal & Professional Services — Document automation, case management, process serving
- Construction & Project Management — Bid analysis, scheduling optimization, safety compliance
- Healthcare — Patient intake, prior authorization, clinical documentation
- SaaS & Technology — Customer support agents, onboarding automation, data enrichment
What Disqualifies You
- No clear business problem (just "want to use AI")
- No decision-maker involved in the process
- Pre-revenue startups without existing operations to optimize
- Companies committed to a non-AWS cloud provider

Book Your Qualification Call →Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the assessment take?
Typically 2-4 weeks from kickoff to final deliverable, depending on stakeholder availability and complexity of existing workflows.
What if we don't proceed to build after the assessment?
The assessment is yours to keep regardless. You'll have a complete architecture blueprint and business case you can execute with any team — there's no lock-in.
Is this really free? What's the catch?
AWS funds these through their partner programs to drive AI adoption on their platform. AllCode is compensated by AWS — you pay nothing. The "catch" is you need to be a genuine candidate for AI agent implementation.
Can startups qualify?
Post-revenue startups with real operations to optimize can qualify. Pre-revenue companies building their first product typically don't — AWS wants to see existing processes that AI agents can improve.
We're already on Azure/GCP — can we still qualify?
If you're open to running AI workloads on AWS (even alongside other providers), you may still qualify. The assessment is specifically for AWS-based AI agent architecture.
