Amazon Verified Permissions reduces authorization request price by up to 97%

Today, Amazon Verified Permissions announces price reduction for single authorization requests by up to 97% to $5 per million API requests. This price reduction makes it substantially cost-effective for customers to implement fine-grained authorization across all their applications, enabling authorization checks for every user action.

Amazon Verified Permissions is a scalable, fully managed authorization service that uses Cedar, an open-source policy language for access control. By decoupling permissions from application logic, Amazon Verified Permissions allows you to centrally manage authorization policies while improving your applications' security posture and development efficiency.

The price reduction applies to all AWS Regions where Amazon Verified Permissions is available starting June 12, 2025, at midnight UTC, and is enabled for all customers without any further action. The reduction applies to requests made to the isAuthorized and isAuthorizedWithToken APIs. The pricing for batch authorization requests and policy management operations remains unchanged.
