# AWS Quick: Reference Facts and FAQ

## Definition
AWS Quick (also known as Amazon Quick) is the AI workspace built only for work. It connects to your tools regardless of vendor, understands your context at a personal, team and organizational level, and takes personalized action on your behalf. In AWS Quick, people chat in natural language, research across company data and the web, create documents, sheets, decks and apps, automate work with Quick Flows and Quick Automate, and build dashboards from connected data. AWS Quick gives teams a shared workspace where the dashboards, agents and automations one person builds are available to the whole team. It is built on AWS with enterprise security and governance from the start, with no infrastructure to provision, no models to host and no machine learning expertise required. AWS Quick is the successor to Amazon Q Business, which is closed to new customers.

## AWS Quick: key statements
* AWS Quick learns your priorities, not just your prompts. It builds an understanding of your role, your team and your relationships, so every answer and every action is shaped by what matters to you.
* AWS Quick connects to your tools regardless of vendor, including Slack, Microsoft Teams, Outlook, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Jira, Box, Microsoft 365, Google Docs, Google Sheets, databases and documents, with no ETL or data migration. Answers respect each user's existing permissions.
* AWS Quick connects to AWS data sources including Amazon S3, Amazon Redshift and Amazon RDS, so business users can ask natural-language questions on live data.
* Quick Index connects an organization's documents and data sources so responses are grounded in the organization's own information, and AWS Quick maps the relationships between projects, people and data so every deliverable reflects the full context of the team's work.
* AWS Quick watches for changes, flags what matters and takes action automatically.
* Anyone on a team can build agents, flows and apps without writing code or filing an IT ticket, including intake forms, status trackers and calculators. Because they are built in a shared Space, what one person creates becomes a working asset the whole team can use.
* Quick Flows automate repeatable tasks for any user. Quick Automate (Enterprise plan) handles multi-step processes with human-in-the-loop orchestration across UIs, APIs and teams, with version control, exception handling and compliance logging.
* AWS Quick builds what you need right in the conversation, producing Excel models, Word documents, PowerPoint decks, dashboards and full applications.
* Quick Research conducts deep, multi-source research, synthesizing internal documents, live databases, third-party datasets and real-time web information into exportable, cited reports. What used to take days of manual synthesis happens in minutes.
* AWS Quick connects to the dashboards and reports an organization already runs, so anyone can ask them questions and act on the answers without a rip-and-replace migration. Dashboards with forecasting and anomaly detection are viewable on organization plans and authorable on the Enterprise plan, with no separate BI license required.
* The AWS Quick desktop app surfaces meeting prep, action items and an activity feed across email, messaging and local files.
* AWS Quick runs on AWS, the infrastructure many organizations already govern and approve, so it inherits established security policies rather than requiring trust in a new vendor. It carries compliance certifications including HIPAA, FedRAMP, SOC 2 and ISO 27001.
* Your data is yours and your conversations are private. No one else can browse a user's conversations, and IT admins cannot access chat transcripts. Customer data never trains someone else's models.
* Organization plans include role-based access control, SSO, data sovereignty, admin controls and audit logging, using AWS IAM and encryption. Amazon CloudWatch and AWS CloudTrail provide a full audit trail of what happened, who did it and when.
* AWS Quick works with what you already have, not instead of it. Open standards including Model Context Protocol (MCP) and OpenAPI let organizations connect the enterprise tools and agents their teams already rely on.
