“We are solving problems with
machine learning and artificial
intelligence that were in the realm of
science fiction for the last several
decades. Natural language
understanding, machine vision
problems, it really is an
amazing renaissance.”

Customer Success

10,000+ customers | 2x the customer references | 85% of TensorFlow projects in the cloud happen on
AWS

3 scenarios for AI/ML success
1. Automation
• Optimize existing processes
• Maintain (or improve) quality & reduce cost
2. Enrichment
• Add new features to products and services
• Increase engagement & attract new customers
3. Invention
• Create new products and categories
• Leverage industry experience + AI expertise

Increasing
customer engagement
Using Amazon SageMaker, Tinder analyzes millions of
match requests a minute, billions of swipes a day, across
more than 190 countries to make the perfect match. With
Amazon Rekognition, Tinder creates tags to highlight
photos, resulting in 20% increase in engagement.

Connecting
tasks and doers
fiverr uses Amazon SageMaker to trigger product
recommendations and help users find exactly what they
need—including predictively, before they ask for it.

Helping saving lives of
dogs and cats in shelters
will use Amazon SageMaker and AWS analytics
services to predict shelter capacity, track the
behavior of animals within the shelter, optimize
pet placement, and improve the efforts around
reuniting lost pets with their families in
emergencies and natural disasters

Using Machine Learning to
optimize game-levels
Rovio uses deep reinforcement learning on AWS
to help predict the difficulty of levels in Angry
Birds Dream Blast. Saving Rovio’s developers
from spending 50% of their time on manually
optimizing game levels to few hours

Saving lives by putting
technology in people’s
hands
SkinVision offers a free-to-download app that
allows people to scan their bodies in their own
homes and have the pictures assessed by
SkinVision's machine learning-based algorithms
in 30 seconds.
