Learn how to build an end-to-end RFI questionnaire workflow with Amazon Quick Automate. Read a multi-tab RFI workbook from Amazon S3, use natural-language prompts to extract and structure the questionnaire data, refine the workflow through conversation, and write clean CSV output back to Amazon S3 — cutting development from days to hours.
A configurable, model-agnostic detector that turns any large language model on Amazon Bedrock into a PII detector. Because the entities to detect live in a prompt rather than in code, one detector adapts to new entity types without retraining, and it outperforms an off-the-shelf tool across five public corpora and nine LLM-based detectors.
