Amazon Business Assistant

The company announced that, starting on Wednesday, Amazon Business users in the U.S. can access the Amazon Business Assistant at no additional cost. Amazon said that the assistant also recommends ways to buy more efficiently based on past purchase history and will continue to learn over time through user interactions and feedback ratings.

Amazon announced that in the coming weeks, U.S. Business Prime members will gain access to “Savings Insights,” a new Amazon Business Analytics feature designed to reduce the time spent analyzing buying trends and discovering savings. “This AI-enabled tool analyzes purchase history, pricing patterns, and account settings to make recommendations via an easy-to-read, ready-to-use dashboard,” the company said.

Amazon, Deloitte Collaboration

The company also announced a collaboration between Amazon Business, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Deloitte on two new AI-powered solutions aimed at equipping organizations to respond more effectively to supply chain disruptions and save time and money.

Amazon said that these were built on Deloitte’s IntelligentOps platform and enabled by Amazon Bedrock and Amazon SageMaker AI. The company noted that these solutions are designed to help users shift from reactive problem-solving to proactive decision-making.
