What is Amazon Comprehend?

Amazon Comprehend is an advanced natural language processing (NLP) platform that utilizes machine learning techniques to uncover insights and identify relationships within textual data, requiring no previous machine learning expertise for its application. Your unstructured data, which may originate from customer emails, support requests, product reviews, social media conversations, or marketing materials, is rich with insights that can greatly benefit your organization by reflecting customer attitudes. The main challenge is to harness this abundant information, but machine learning is adept at extracting specific elements from large volumes of text, such as identifying company names in financial reports, along with gauging the sentiment conveyed in the language, whether it involves addressing negative feedback or recognizing positive experiences with customer service. Amazon Comprehend enables you to uncover these hidden insights and relationships in your unstructured data, serving as a vital tool for improving business strategies and making informed decisions. As a result, leveraging this technology can transform the way you understand and respond to customer needs, ultimately driving growth and innovation within your organization.

    Not Worth the Cost

    Date: Sep 02 2025
    Summary

    Would not recommend for anyone needing to process large amounts of documents for classification, where cost is a factor.

    Positive

    Very easy to setup and train models. Endpoint were very easy to configure and get running. Built for developer ease of use.

    Negative

    The cost is outrageous. Most AWS products are reasonable in terms of cost especially their AI products. This one is so prohibitive we will be moving our infrastructure to another system. The costly part is their endpoints with cost as long as they are running. Our system needs to have 24/7 availability and was doing document analysis on 1000s of emails and documents per day. The cost for a single endpoint was ~$3400 USD. Very little traffic was being used by that endpoint at the time. AWS charged for total time not token based usage. Which made the costs skyrocket. Please avoid to save yourself money unless you can standup the endpoints and take them down frequently.
