How Cox Automotive Launched 17 AI Agent Solutions with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore

Cox Automotive needed to deploy agentic AI at scale while maintaining enterprise-grade security across diverse brands and sensitive automotive data. Challenges included no standardized agent execution environment, inability to maintain conversation context across multi-step workflows, and unproven security models.

Cox Automotive implemented Amazon Bedrock AgentCore as foundational infrastructure with Strands Agents Framework for multi-agent coordination, Bedrock Knowledge Bases for RAG, and Bedrock Guardrails for content restriction.

From 57 evaluated opportunities, 17 went to production. FleetMate estimate completion dropped from 8-48 hours to 30 minutes. VinSolutions achieved 3x higher consumer response rates. One pilot projected 17,000 hours saved, with 50% technical debt reduction. Concept-to-production took days instead of months.
