Web Search now available on Kiro in AWS GovCloud (US)

Kiro provides agents with real-time access to current internet information, ensuring answers are based on up-to-date search results and page content. Administrators can disable web search and fetch for their organization via the Kiro console.

Kiro's web search lets agents access real-time internet updates, using the latest results and page content for responses. It automatically uses web search for topics beyond recent changes or model data, and includes citations in responses using web results. Enterprise admins can disable web search and fetch in the Kiro console, and teams can remove web tools or block them with feature-based permissions. For details, see AWS GovCloud (US) docs or contact your AWS account team. Learn more at the Kiro product page.

Why it matters

Kiro is an AI agent service on AWS, and the web search capability enables agents to leverage the latest information, allowing organizations to align with their information security requirements.
