Amazon Q Developer now help customers understand service prices and estimate workload costs

Today, AWS announces a new pricing and cost estimation capability in Amazon Q Developer. Amazon Q Developer is the most capable generative AI-powered assistant for software development. With this launch, customers can now use Amazon Q Developer to get information about AWS product and service pricing, availability, and attributes, helping them select the right resources and estimate workload costs using natural language. When architecting new workloads on AWS, customers need to estimate costs so they can evaluate cost/performance tradeoffs, set budgets, and plan future spending. Customers can now use Amazon Q Developer to retrieve detailed product attribute and pricing information using natural language, making it easier to estimate the cost of new workloads without having to review multiple pricing pages or specify detailed API request parameters. Customers can now ask questions about service pricing (e.g., “How much does RDS extended support cost?”), the cost of a planned workload (e.g., “I need to send 1 million notifications per month to email, and 1 million to HTTP/S endpoints. Estimate the monthly cost using SNS.”), or the relative costs of different resources (e.g., “What is the cost difference between an Application Load Balancer and a Network Load Balancer?”). To answer these questions, Amazon Q Developer retrieves information from the AWS Price List APIs. To learn more, see Managing your costs using generative AI with Amazon Q Developer. To get started, open the Amazon Q chat panel in the AWS Management Console and ask a question about pricing.

AWS Marketplace expands Japan consumption tax support for Channel Partner Private Offers

Starting today, AWS Marketplace expands its Japan consumption tax (JCT) support for Channel Partner Private Offers (CPPOs), enhancing the tax experience for Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) and Channel Partners. For transactions where Japan ISVs authorize Japan Channel Partners to resell to Japan addressed buyers, AWS Japan G.K. (“AWS Japan”) will now collect the 10% JCT for the first leg of the transaction between ISVs and Channel Partners, issue a tax qualified invoice (TQI) to the Channel Partners and disburse the JCT to ISVs. AWS Japan will continue to collect the 10% JCT for the second leg of the transaction between Japan Channel Partners and Japan buyers and issue a TQI to the buyers, as previously established under the Japan Marketplace Facilitator rule. This launch unifies the compliance across both transactions, creating a seamless tax experience. This feature is applicable for Japan ISVs and Japan Channel Partners when transacting via the AWS Japan Marketplace Operator. To learn more, please visit the AWS Japan FAQ or AWS Marketplace Seller Guide.

AWS Marketplace announces enhanced pricing dimension capabilities for sellers

Today, AWS Marketplace announces enhanced pricing dimension capabilities, increasing limits and improving flexibility for sellers managing their product pricing. These enhancements increase the maximum pricing dimensions from 24 to 200, enable immediate use of new SaaS dimensions, and remove the 90-day price update restriction for dimensions without active subscriptions. These enhancements address key product pricing needs for sellers offering complex enterprise software. With 200 dimensions each for contract and usage-based pricing, sellers can now fully represent pricing across multiple features, user types, and consumption metrics in a single listing; matching the same pricing structures they offer outside of AWS Marketplace. When sellers add new usage dimensions to their public offers, these become available immediately for use. For instance, when a seller launches a new feature, subscribers can now instantly access it. Similarly, for dimensions without active subscriptions, sellers can adjust prices to align with their external pricing strategies without waiting through multiple 90-day periods. These enhancements to pricing dimensions are now available in all AWS Regions where AWS Marketplace is supported. To learn more, visit the AWS Marketplace Seller Guide, or access the AWS Marketplace Management Portal to try the new capabilities.

AWS Marketplace now supports new currencies for usage-based private offers

AWS Marketplace now supports usage-based private offers in four new currencies: EUR, GBP, AUD, and JPY. AWS Marketplace Sellers and Channel Partners can now reach buyers globally without currency conversion complexity or foreign exchange risk by pricing their offers in these new currencies. For sellers, this means faster deal cycles, simplified cash flow management in local currency, and the ability to close larger deals with confidence. For AWS Marketplace buyers, software and services can now be procured in their preferred currency, eliminating foreign exchange risk in invoice amounts, and streamlining the procurement process for private offers. Sellers can now create private offers in EUR, GBP, AUD, and JPY, and receive their disbursements in the offer currency, regardless of pricing types, including contract with consumption-based pricing and usage-based (pay-as-you-go) pricing, in addition to contract-only pricing. For Channel Partner Private Offers (CPPO), the seller, channel partner, and buyer must all transact in the same currency. Sellers need to issue a resale authorization in the negotiated currency, and the channel partner then creates the CPPO in that currency. This functionality is available worldwide for all AWS Marketplace Sellers for all private offers. Public offers remain in USD only. AWS Marketplace Sellers can choose to get disbursed to a bank account in one of the eligible jurisdictions by updating your banking information and set your currency preferences in the AWS Marketplace Management Portal Settings page. To learn more, visit the documentation on local currency offers and disbursements.
