Wood Mackenzie found that most AI projects never reach production.
Eighty-eight percent of their proofs-of-concept fail to scale widely.
Forrester says agent failures come from ambiguity, not model bugs.
They built APEX on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore to fix this problem.
Why they chose AgentCore
Three internal apps needed separate agent stacks before the project.
Each would have paid infrastructure costs three times over.
AgentCore offers a single runtime for orchestration and safety.
It supports many frameworks like LangGraph, CrewAI, and Strands Agents.
Managed features
The platform handles scaling, patching, and availability automatically.
General availability launched in October 2025 with full AWS integration.
Users can swap models without losing conversation context or code.
Security and control
Native guardrails detect PII and enforce policies using Cedar rules.
Identity management uses AWS IAM for strict access controls.
Sessions stay isolated while execution windows last up to eight hours.
