Cassava adds an African access route to Claude through Amazon Bedrock

Cassava Technologies has become authorised to resell access to Anthropic’s Claude models through Amazon Bedrock.

Announced in October 2026, the agreement gives African organisations another route to the models through a partner operating across connectivity, cloud, cybersecurity and AI services.

Customers can incorporate supported model capabilities into their own applications through Bedrock. The development is an access and service-distribution agreement, rather than a new model created by Cassava.

The announcement does not set out a universal price or a single deployment arrangement for every market. Organisations considering the offering will need to establish the supported models, hosting configuration and commercial terms for their workloads.
