AWS: Amazon Bedrock AgentCore builds decks from docs under 90 seconds

The guide's example workload is a financial services team that spends significant time each week manually building client PowerPoint presentations from quarterly reports, compliance documents, and market analyses. The solution automates that workflow using a supervisor agent on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore runtime, with the code in a public repository.

In internal testing with a 90-page Amazon 2024 Annual Report PDF, the solution produced a six-slide presentation in 70–90 seconds end-to-end. That includes knowledge base retrieval, content generation, image creation, and file assembly. Image generation used Stability AI Stable Image Inpaint, and the guide says it accounted for the majority of the approximately $0.04 in model invocation costs per generation at time of writing in us-east-1.

The solution addresses a technical bottleneck: the default Amazon API Gateway integration timeout is 29 seconds, but presentation generation takes 70–90 seconds. The guide instructs users to configure the timeout to at least 300 seconds. It also notes that current manual document preparation involves reading hundreds of pages and extracting key data points, structuring slides, and generating visuals.
