Assessment

Free tier: highPro tier: low

Reasoning: AWS's coding assistant, formerly CodeWhisperer. The Free tier, which needs only a Builder ID, may feed code and prompts into service improvement and stores content in US Regions. The Pro tier is excluded from improvement use and keeps IDE and console chat in the profile's Region.

Flags: Free tier used for service improvement, opt-out · Free tier stored in US Regions · Pro tier region-bound · Assessed 2026-09-16. The assessment is Unseen's; the terms above are the vendor's.
