Converse takes tools with `toolChoice` auto, any or a named tool and `strict: true`, but forced choice depends on the model behind it (17 of 20). Structured outputs on supported models only (13 of 15). Explicit and implicit prompt caching, cache reads at $0.20 per million on Opus 5.5, 0.05x input, with 5-minute and 1-hour TTLs (15). 1M-token context on Opus 5.5, Sonnet 5.5 and Nova 2 Lite, a judgement call since Bedrock has no default model (15). Batch at half price on supported models, but the pricing page shows none for Opus 5.5 or Sonnet 5.5, while Flex is half price on Nova (7 of 10). AWS SDKs in every major language plus token generators for Python, JavaScript and Java (10). Typed errors with recovery advice per code (15).\n- Glimpse (20): Model reading of the checklist (tool use, structured output, caching, context, batch, SDKs, errors). On 17 October the tool, `tool_choice`, `response_format`, `structured_outputs`, cached-price, context, output-limit and batch readings for this model all came from OpenRouter's endpoints API, which this run doesn't use, so they are struck. No readable first-hand page states them today. Elorian's docs sit on a host that refuses our crawler, and Together's model page says only text, image and video in and text out on a dedicated deployment. Tool use (0 of 20), structured output (0 of 15), prompt caching (0 of 15), context length (0 of 15), batch (0 of 10). OpenRouter's SDKs in TypeScript, Python and Go, and any OpenAI client works (10 of 10, per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026). OpenRouter's documented error codes with `limit_source` and remedy hints, nothing specific to video or image limits (10 of 15, per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026). 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 10 + 10 = 20.\n\n### Reliability: Amazon Bedrock +57\n\n- Amazon Bedrock (80): AWS Health Dashboard with per-service, per-Region feeds and a public history file (20). The history lists Amazon Bedrock as disrupted in ME-CENTRAL-1 (UAE) and ME-SOUTH-1 (Bahrain) since March 2026, where AWS said on 15 September 2026 (still inside the 90-day window on 6 November) that it can't restore resources held only there. No other Bedrock event appears in the history in the 90 days to 6 November; an EU-SOUTH-2 packet-loss event on 4 October named Bedrock AgentCore, not Bedrock. This counts as one major event (10). StatusGator's third-party mirror shows 'Increased Error Rates' warnings on 24, 26 and 27 August and 10 September that we couldn't find in AWS's own history, so we didn't score them. Per-model token quotas with default values in the AWS General Reference, such as 30,000,000 tokens a minute for Opus 5.5 global inference (15). The error guide gives exponential backoff with jitter for 429, 503 and 529 and says to honour `Retry-After`, and the SDKs retry ModelNotReadyException up to five times (15). SLA of 99.9 per cent a month per Region for the model APIs, last updated 4 October 2023 (10). Converse and the current Claude, GPT-6 and Nova 2 Lite models are GA (10).\n- Glimpse (23): Hosted lines, read on the OpenRouter route. OpenRouter's status host refuses our crawler in robots.txt, so the 17 October reading of it is struck, and Elorian has no status page found (0 of 20). No 90-day incident record could be read. The 17 October uptime figures came from OpenRouter's endpoints API, a JSON data API this run doesn't use, and are struck (5). OpenRouter's limits page documents credit, budget and rate limits and a key endpoint that reports what's left, but sets no request cap on paid models, and no limit for Glimpse was found (8 of 15, per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026, openrouter.ai paused on its terms). The errors page documents Retry-After on 429 and 503 and on 402 in-flight budget errors, and says the official SDKs honour it, with no safe-retry guidance or idempotency keys recorded (10, Retry-After alone, the value this run gives backoff or Retry-After guidance by itself; per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026). No SLA from Elorian or for this endpoint (0). Elorian and Together label Glimpse a research preview (0). 0 + 5 + 8 + 10 + 0 + 0 = 23.\n\n### Schema \u0026 documentation: Amazon Bedrock +54\n\n- Amazon Bedrock (94): Model reading. No OpenAPI, but the bedrock-runtime and bedrock Smithy models are public in aws/api-models-aws with types, required members and enums, counted as for S3 (25). llms.txt for the user guide with about 2,000 lines, each page with a Markdown twin (10). Model cards state context, output limits, endpoints and supported functions per model, and the guide now recommends `bedrock-runtime` for new work, but support for each API, endpoint and feature changes model by model (16 of 20). Structured outputs compile JSON Schema to a grammar, with `minimum`, `maximum` and string lengths supported, though some inference profiles don't support it, such as Haiku 4.5 through the India profile (13 of 15). Every operation lists typed errors with HTTP codes and links to a troubleshooting page with causes and fixes, and examples run through the guide (15). API version 2023-09-30 and a dated document history with an RSS feed, newest entry 30 October 2026, with structured outputs for Claude on both endpoints added on 18 October (15).\n- Glimpse (40): Model reading. Elorian publishes no API reference, model card or llms.txt in public. Its docs sit at platform.elorian.ai/docs, a host whose robots.txt answers access denied. The 17 October contract reading rested on OpenRouter's OpenAPI-documented chat endpoint, with no recorded visible download link on a host now paused, and on the parameter list from OpenRouter's endpoints API, both struck (0 of 25). OpenRouter's llms.txt and Markdown docs, including video input (10, per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026). The launch post and Together's model page name the jobs (visual search, video captioning, dense counting, robotics planning) and the post states limits (token cost, no action outputs yet), but nothing says when not to use it or how video is sampled (6 of 20). Typed parameters for OpenRouter's chat endpoint in its API reference, with no reasoning effort levels documented for this model (10 of 15, per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026; the 17 October `tool_choice` reading came from the struck endpoints API). OpenRouter's examples and error reference, with no Glimpse-specific examples or limits on video length or image count (7 of 15). OpenRouter's dated changelog, with no changelog from Elorian (7 of 15, held as partly met; the dated canonical slug came from the struck endpoints API). 0 + 10 + 6 + 10 + 7 + 7 = 40.\n\n### Transparency \u0026 trust: Amazon Bedrock +47\n\n- Amazon Bedrock (85): Closed service under the AWS Customer Agreement and Service Terms, with the SDKs and Smithy models under Apache-2.0 (18, as for S3). The data retention, abuse detection and security pages agree that Bedrock stores nothing by default, name the models that retain traffic and for how long, and say retained data isn't shared with providers. The retention page's `default` mode says AWS 'may retain the data for safety and abuse-prevention purposes' without a period, and a legacy `provider_data_share` mode is kept though sharing isn't supported (25 of 30). A written lifecycle policy with Legacy and EOL dates per model, but the legacy table's 34-day Legacy periods for five Claude models in some Regions contradict its own 6-month floor (15 of 20, down from 18). AWS's sub-processor list, per the 4 October S3 check, and per-Region, geographic and global inference options, with global routing able to process data in any commercial Region (18 of 20).\n- Glimpse (38): Closed model with weights not released and the open-weight base model unnamed. Elorian's terms sit on platform.elorian.ai, whose robots.txt answers access denied, so they were not read; published terms on a refusing host keep the closed-service value, held at 13 of 30. The privacy policy says Elorian trains on submitted content from free use and gives no retention periods, and the acceptable use policy, updated 19 October 2026, is still titled Privacy Policy and still carries a drafting comment from a terms outline in its markup (10 of 30, held as partly met; the 17 October comparison with the terms rested on the struck script reading). No deprecation policy or dated notices (0 of 20). Services hosted in the United States and subprocessors named by category only, and OpenRouter shows Together as the provider with its data policy (8 of 20). 13 + 10 + 0 + 8 = 31.\n\n### Security \u0026 auth: Amazon Bedrock +42\n\n- Amazon Bedrock (98): Model reading. IAM with SigV4, roles and STS session credentials, policies down to a model or inference-profile ARN, short-term API keys that expire within 12 hours, long-term keys with expiry and reset, and condition keys that can deny bearer tokens altogether (30). The security page says customer data isn't shared with model providers or used to improve the base models (20). The abuse detection page says Bedrock stores no inputs or outputs by default, and a per-Region `none` mode blocks models that require retention, but Claude Fable 5 and 5.1 keep all traffic up to 30 days and GPT-6 and GPT-5.x keep flagged traffic up to 30 days (13 of 15, a judgement call; Anthropic's own API got 12 for the same Fable exception without an account-level block). CloudTrail logs API calls, and model invocation logging can send prompts and responses to S3 or CloudWatch Logs (15). Bedrock is in ISO, SOC and CSA STAR Level 2 scope, HIPAA eligible and FedRAMP High in GovCloud (US-West) per its security page, with a vulnerability disclosure programme on HackerOne, and the aws.amazon.com security.txt, expired on 6 October, was renewed with Expires 2027-10-16 when read on 6 November (20). Up from 96 on 6 October for that reason.\n- Glimpse (56): Model reading. OpenRouter bearer keys with per-key credit limits, management keys and OAuth PKCE, no permission scopes (25 of 30, per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026). Training on API data on this route is off according to OpenRouter's policy display for Together (no training, no prompt retention). Elorian's privacy policy trains on Inputs and Outputs from free access by default and says different terms may apply to paid and API use. The 17 October reading of Elorian's terms came from a script on a host that now refuses our crawler and is struck. Whether Elorian receives prompts from the Together deployment was not established (8 of 20, held as partly met). OpenRouter's zero-retention filter and Together's no-retention flag, against Elorian's retention 'for as long as reasonably necessary' with no period (8 of 15). OpenRouter's per-generation activity records for the operator (10 of 15). OpenRouter's security.txt was valid at its last check. Elorian has no security.txt, disclosure policy, bug bounty or certification found (5 of 20, held as partly met). 25 + 8 + 8 + 10 + 5 = 56. Readings of OpenRouter and Elorian pages per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026.\n\n### Maintenance \u0026 community: Amazon Bedrock +30\n\n- Amazon Bedrock (81): Model reading. The last model or API change is 30 October 2026 (OpenAI model API support and cross-Region inference in GovCloud), after structured outputs for Claude on both endpoints on 18 October (30). Models launched since 7 September 2026 get a 6-month or 45-day Legacy period, but the legacy page, which promises at least 6 months in Legacy, lists Claude 3 Haiku, 3 Sonnet, 3.5 Sonnet, 3.5 Sonnet v2 and 3.7 Sonnet as Legacy from 10 or 13 October with end of life on 13 November in several Regions, about 34 days (6 of 12, down from 10). Six models reached end of life in the 90 days to 6 November on five dates, Command R and R+ on 19 August, Claude 3 Haiku on 10 September, Nova Sonic on 14 September, Nova Canvas and Nova Reel on 30 September and Claude Sonnet 4 on 14 October (3 of 8, down from 4). Dated document history several times a month, What's New and re:Post, with direct support on a paid plan (12 of 15). SDK issue replies not sampled (5 of 10). Current official SDKs, boto3 1.43.125 on 5 November and `@aws-sdk/client-bedrock-runtime` 3.1163.0 (15). Supported runtimes stated, Python 3.10 or later and Node 20 or later (10). Down from 86 on 6 October.\n- Glimpse (51): Model reading. Announced on 16 October 2026, 19 days before 4 November, and still labelled a research preview on Together's model page that day (30). One release, no history of versions or retirements and no deprecation notice period (3 of 20). Elorian's support page says there is no support queue, and channels are email and a Discord server, not tested (6 of 25, per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026; the terms' no-support clause came from the struck script reading). No official SDK from Elorian. OpenRouter's SDKs are current (8 of 15). No package or CI of Elorian's to read. OpenRouter's SDK repositories run CI (4 of 10). 30 + 3 + 6 + 8 + 4 = 51.\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | Amazon Bedrock | Glimpse | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 80 | 23 | Amazon Bedrock +57 |\n| Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 94 | 40 | Amazon Bedrock +54 |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 92 | 20 | Amazon Bedrock +72 |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 98 | 56 | Amazon Bedrock +42 |\n| Payments \u0026 pricing | 10% (12.5 this run) | 30 | 25 | Amazon Bedrock +5 |\n| Task success | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Maintenance \u0026 community | 7% (8.8 this run) | 81 | 51 | Amazon Bedrock +30 |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 85 | 38 | Amazon Bedrock +47 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | 0 | 0 | |\n| **Total** | | **81.7 · A** | **35.1 · F** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | Amazon Bedrock | Glimpse |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | Model API | Model API |\n| Vendor | Amazon Web Services | Elorian |\n| Hosted endpoint | `https://bedrock-runtime.us-east-1.amazonaws.com` | `https://openrouter.ai/api/v1` |\n| Transports | HTTP | HTTP |\n| Auth | OAuth or key | API key |\n| Pricing | Pay per use | Pay per use |\n| x402 | no | no |\n| Licence | Proprietary service under the AWS Customer Agreement and Service Terms.

Setup needs an AWS account, IAM permissions and a Region, capabilities vary by model, and some Regions gave five older Claude models about 34 days of notice.\n\n**Glimpse.** Glimpse reads images and video at $0.60 input and $3.00 output per million tokens, through OpenRouter or a dedicated Together deployment. It is a research preview with no public Elorian docs, model card or status page, its context and tool support aren't stated on a readable first-hand page, and Elorian's privacy policy trains on free use by default.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Amazon Bedrock\n\n1. Use the geographic or global inference ID from the model card, such as `global.anthropic.claude-opus-5-5`. Global routing is cheaper but can process data in any commercial Region\n2. Set `data_retention_mode` to `none` in each Region before sending sensitive data. Models that need retention then return ValidationException\n3. Back off with jitter on 429 ThrottlingException, 503 and 529 `overloaded_error`, and honour `Retry-After` when it's sent\n4. Generate short-term API keys from an IAM role for production. Long-term keys create an IAM user and AWS marks them exploration only\n5. Call ListFoundationModels in your Region and read `modelLifecycle` before pinning a model ID. Claude 3.x IDs in several Regions stop working on 13 November 2026 and requests don't redirect\n\n### Glimpse\n\n1. Call it through OpenRouter as `elorian/glimpse` at https://openrouter.ai/api/v1/chat/completions. Elorian's own API docs sit behind a console sign-in\n2. Send video as a `video_url` content part, as a public URL or a base64 data URL\n3. Set `max_tokens` yourself. Reasoning tokens bill as output, and visual reasoning spends many of them\n4. Honour Retry-After on 429 and 503, as OpenRouter's error reference documents\n5. Check counts and timestamps against the source image or video before acting on them\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Amazon Bedrock or Glimpse?\n\nAmazon Bedrock scores 81.7 (A) on agent readiness against Glimpse's 35.1 (F), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Do Amazon Bedrock and Glimpse need an API key?\n\nAmazon Bedrock takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in. Glimpse needs an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Amazon Bedrock and Glimpse without installing anything?\n\nYes. Amazon Bedrock has a hosted endpoint at https://bedrock-runtime.us-east-1.amazonaws.com and Glimpse at https://openrouter.ai/api/v1.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/amazon-bedrock-vs-elorian-glimpse.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/amazon-bedrock-vs-elorian-glimpse.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"amazon-bedrock\", \"b\": \"elorian-glimpse\"}`.
