Amazon Web Services (AWS) is expected to pull the cloth off its first AI Agent Marketplace during the opening-day keynote at the AWS Summit NYC on July 15.

The marketplace promises a single console where enterprises can browse, buy, and deploy autonomous software agents from dozens of vendors.

The partnership extends to Anthropic’s MCP. This standard is designed to let different agents share context. AWS will incorporate it into the new marketplace from day one.

Anthropic’s in-house agents will very likely headline the catalog, giving the startup direct exposure to millions of AWS customers.

AWS’s store joins Google Cloud’s AI Agent Marketplace which was launched in April 2025. It also joins Microsoft’s Agent Store from May 2025. There are similar exchanges from Salesforce and ServiceNow.

Holger Mueller of Constellation Research was quoted by SiliconANGLE as saying, “If AI agents are going to be easily consumed by enterprise customers, they need to find their way into marketplaces, and AWS appears to recognize this.”

Market watchers expect the AI-agent sector to swell to . Meanwhile, AWS posted in Q4 2024 revenue, underscoring the distribution heft it can bring to emerging software categories.

In March, Reuters reported that Swami Sivasubramanian took charge of a new group focused on agentic artificial intelligence. AWS CEO Matt Garman has described agentic AI as AWS’s “next multi-billion-dollar business.”
