Amazon’s AI Startup Blind Spot Threatens Cloud Dominance as Solo Founders Rise

Amazon Web Services faces a significant blind spot in identifying promising AI startups as they increasingly operate without venture capital funding, according to internal documents. The cloud giant’s traditional VC-driven approach has reportedly caused it to miss several high-growth companies that later achieved substantial revenue or acquisitions. AWS now plans to implement data-based prediction models to spot these emerging businesses earlier.

Amazon Web Services has identified what internal documents describe as a significant “blind spot” in its ability to spot promising AI startups before they become major cloud customers, according to reports obtained by Business Insider. The issue stems from AWS’s traditional heavy reliance on venture capital connections to identify emerging companies, which reportedly causes the cloud provider to miss rapidly growing businesses that operate without external funding.
