AWS re:Invent 2025 - Concept to campaign: Marketing agents on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore (AIM395)

Source: Dev.to

Introduction

In this session, experts from AWS and Epsilon demonstrate how Amazon Bedrock AgentCore services solve multi‑channel marketing automation challenges through agentic AI. The presentation covers AgentCore’s modular services—Runtime, Identity, Gateway, Memory, and Observability—and shows how they enable flexible agent deployment with any framework (LangGraph, CrewAI, Strands) and any LLM.

Multi‑Channel Marketing: Business Problem

Multi‑channel marketing is a customer‑centric strategy that delivers seamless, integrated experiences across all touchpoints (email, SMS, web personalization, social media, etc.) while maintaining consistent messaging.

Key challenges include:

• Complex workflows – coordinating many customer journeys, channels, and touchpoints.
• Rigid traditional automation – fixed scripts that cannot adapt in real time.
• Real‑time personalization – generating and delivering personalized content at scale.
• Brand consistency – enforcing guardrails and compliance across all outputs.
• Data silos – fragmented data across CRM, e‑commerce, analytics, and other systems.
• Speed to market – lengthy campaign setup and audience segmentation cycles.
• Attribution & ROI measurement – tracking performance across disparate channels.

How Agentic AI Addresses These Challenges

Flexible, Real‑Time Workflows

Agentic AI enables multiple specialized agents to coordinate in real time. Agents can adapt dynamically to unexpected customer behavior, preserving cross‑channel context and ensuring consistent messaging.

Intelligent Content Generation & Decision Making

• Generate channel‑specific content based on customer segment and behavior.
• Switch channels automatically (e.g., from email to social media) based on real‑time engagement signals.

Built‑In Brand Guardrails

Brand policies and compliance rules are baked into the agents, guaranteeing brand consistency without manual oversight.

Unified Data Access

Agents retrieve and cleanse data from disparate systems via APIs and MCP servers, creating a single, holistic view of each customer.

Accelerated Campaign Creation

• Natural‑language campaign definition – describe target audience and objectives in plain English; agents parse the request, identify the audience, and generate appropriate content.
• Instant optimization – agents monitor performance streams and adjust targeting, content, and channel allocation in real time.

Advanced Attribution & ROI Optimization

Agentic AI models the full customer journey across all touchpoints, providing intelligent attribution and real‑time ROI insights. Predictive analytics estimate campaign outcomes before launch.

AgentCore Service Overview

Architectural Patterns

• Agent‑to‑Agent Communication – via Boto3 SDK or A2A (Agent‑to‑Agent) protocols.
• Security – IAM roles or OAuth tokens enforce least‑privilege access.
• Multi‑Tenancy – isolated sessions per tenant, configurable through the Identity service.
• Cross‑Account Deployment – agents can be deployed across AWS accounts using shared Gateway endpoints and role‑based trust policies.

Epsilon Real‑World Implementation

Epsilon deployed 20+ agents to automate audience segmentation, campaign creation, and performance optimization. Results:

• 30 % reduction in campaign setup time.
• 20 % increase in personalization capacity.

Key use cases demonstrated:

• Automating campaign briefs and content generation.
• Ensuring branding consistency across all outputs.
• Leveraging a 200 million consumer identity database for hyper‑personalized targeting.

Technical Deep Dives

• MCP Server Integration – agents query MCP endpoints to retrieve unified customer data.
• AgentCore Gateway – provides semantic tool discovery, enabling agents to invoke external services (e.g., translation, image generation) without hard‑coding endpoints.
• Session Isolation – each agent interaction runs in an isolated context, preventing data leakage between tenants.
• Observability Stack – traces and metrics are exported via OpenTelemetry to CloudWatch, Datadog, and Langfuse for end‑to‑end monitoring and debugging.
