I Swept All 33 Bedrock Regions So You Don't Have To

The Amazon Bedrock pricing page publishes a training price for the Meta model you almost certainly are not fine-tuning. Here is the customization pricing on the page, as of 8 September 2026: Model Published training price Llama 2 Pretrained 13B $1.49 per 1M tokens Llama 2 Pretrained 70B $7.99 per 1M tokens Cohere Command $0.004 per 1,000 tokens Titan Image Generator $0.005 per image seen…

A reporter examining the Amazon Bedrock pricing and customization options for fine-tuning models found that the only Meta model with a published training price is Llama 2. The Llama model that users would actually fine-tune is not listed. The reporter discovered a Llama 3.3 70B model trained in production on Bedrock and paid real money for its training, but could not find its price on the pricing page.

The report provides a detailed account of the author's findings, including the region-specific availability of Llama 3.3 70B fine-tuning, the limitation of the Custom Model Import for custom models, and the challenges faced during the attempt.
