Getting Access to Claude on AWS Bedrock
Getting Started with AWS Bedrock AWS Bedrock makes cutting-edge generative AI models easily accessible through a unified API. Through a simple sign-up process, you can deploy private instances of models like Claude to augment your team’s workflow.
Here are the key steps:
1. Sign up for an AWS account
As a prerequisite, you need an AWS account with programmatic access enabled. If you don’t have one already, simply go to aws.amazon.com to create a free account.
2. Request access for Claude in the AWS Bedrock console
Once signed in, use the search bar to navigate to the Bedrock console. Click on “Request model access” and submit your use case for Claude. Do note Claude is currently only available in the US East and US West regions.
3. Get approved (typically 24–48 hours)
After submitting the request, the AWS team will manually review and approve access usually within a day. You’ll receive an email from AWS when access is granted.
4. Create an IAM user to generate API keys

Make sure to copy the access and secret key — it’s impossible to retrieve the secret key later. You’ll need both for integrating Claude with applications like Wielded.
