AWS Amplify pricing
AWS Amplify Hosting has no seat fee and no monthly minimum. You pay for build minutes, storage, data served, and server-side rendering. Builds start at $0.01 a minute. Data served costs $0.15 per GB. Figures come from the AWS Amplify pricing page on October 27, 2026. We do not track AWS Amplify on SaaS Price Watch yet.
Build and hosting prices
| Item | Free tier each month | Price after that |
|---|---|---|
| Build, Standard instance (8 GB, 4 vCPUs) | 1,000 build minutes | $0.01 per minute |
| Build, Large instance (16 GB, 8 vCPUs) | none | $0.025 per minute |
| Build, XLarge instance (72 GB, 36 vCPUs) | none | $0.10 per minute |
| Data storage on CDN | 5 GB | $0.023 per GB-month |
| Data transfer out | 15 GB | $0.15 per GB served |
| SSR request count | 500,000 requests | $0.30 per million requests |
| SSR request duration | 100 GB-hours | $0.20 per GB-hour |
| Web Application Firewall | none | $15 a month per app, plus WAF costs |
Storage bills each month until you delete the app. Amplify says it does not charge per seat for teams.
The free tier conflict
The AWS page gives two free periods. The pricing table heads the free column "Free for 12 months". A note above it says new AWS customers from July 15, 2025 get up to $200 in Free Tier credits, and the free plan lasts 6 months after account creation. The same note says all credits must be used within 12 months. We do not resolve this. Check your own AWS account before you count on free minutes.
Sample monthly bills
These are AWS worked examples. AWS marks them as outside the free tier.
| Example | Build minutes | Data served | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 developers, 300 daily users | 600 | 13.18 GB | $8.08 |
| 10,000 daily users, 2 updates a month | 6 | 439.45 GB | $65.98 |
In the second example, data served is $65.92 of the bill. Traffic, not builds, drives cost for busy sites.
What we withhold
We do not list backend service prices (databases, auth, storage). Those bill under each AWS service. We do not list WAF rule costs, because the page points to WAF pricing.
