Build a website with Amazon Bedrock
Facts last verified: . Provider pricing and free tiers change — check their site for current numbers.
Yes — OpenThorn supports Amazon Bedrock, so you can build websites with Claude models running inside your own AWS account: IAM-scoped credentials, your chosen region, CloudWatch auditability, and consolidated AWS billing. Enable model access in the Bedrock console, create scoped IAM credentials, and connect them to OpenThorn.

Free tier
No free tier; usage bills to your AWS account at per-token rates similar to Anthropic's direct prices.
Recommended models
- Claude Opus 4.8 — Anthropic's strongest Bedrock model for the most demanding builds.
- Claude Sonnet 4.6 — The best default — excellent code quality at mid-tier pricing.
How to build your website
- Enable model access in BedrockIn the AWS Bedrock console, request access to the Claude models in your preferred region — approval is typically immediate.
- Create scoped IAM credentialsCreate an IAM user or role with bedrock:InvokeModel permission only, and generate an access key pair. Least-privilege keys limit blast radius.
- Connect to OpenThornSign up free at openthorn.app, open the Providers page, choose Amazon Bedrock, and enter your credentials and region. Everything is encrypted server-side with AES-256-GCM.
- Describe your website and ship itCreate a project, pick a Claude model, and describe the site. Usage appears in your AWS bill and CloudWatch logs. Deploy to Netlify or export the source.
What it costs
Per-token rates are close to Anthropic's direct prices, billed through AWS — a typical site costs $0.50–$2 with Claude Sonnet 4.6.
Common questions
Why use Bedrock instead of the Anthropic API directly?
AWS governance: IAM-scoped access, your chosen region for data residency, CloudWatch audit trails, and one consolidated AWS bill. Per-token prices are close to Anthropic's direct rates, so you pay for control, not extra margin.
Which Bedrock model should I use for websites?
Claude Sonnet 4.6 is the best default — one of the strongest coding models available at mid-tier pricing. Use Claude Opus 4.8 for the most complex multi-page builds.
What IAM permissions does OpenThorn need?
Only bedrock:InvokeModel on the models you intend to use. Create a dedicated least-privilege IAM user so the credentials can do nothing else in your account.
