What is Amazon Comprehend?
Amazon Comprehend is an AWS service that uses machine learning to pull insights from unstructured text, such as entities, key phrases, sentiment, language and topics. Developers call it through an API to analyze customer feedback, documents and support tickets at scale.
Pretrained APIs cover common tasks, and custom classification and custom entity recognition let you train models on your own labeled examples and serve them from managed endpoints. Topic modeling jobs group large document sets by theme.
Pricing is per unit of 100 characters for standard requests, with separate charges for custom model training, endpoint inference units and model storage. A 12-month free tier covers 50,000 units of text per API each month, and a separate Comprehend Medical service handles clinical text.
