Amazon has made its Quick desktop assistant generally available on macOS and Windows, AWS said, and added an activity feed to the iOS and Android versions that pools email, calendar, CRM and messaging into one list.

Amazon pitches Quick to enterprise IT as a governed alternative to shadow AI, saying customer data stays in the customer's own environment, conversations stay private, and audit trails run through CloudWatch and CloudTrail. Quick has run in the AWS Frankfurt region since March, with inference requests routed only within European regions, and also runs in London and Ireland.

Those are ordinary AWS regions; Quick does not appear on the published service list for the AWS European Sovereign Cloud opened in Brandenburg in January. Amazon names Southwest Airlines, Labcorp and the PGA Tour as customers, all supplied testimonials, and gives no pricing, seat numbers or date for sovereign cloud support.
