Lyra Cloud Services expands Claude access via Bedrock

Lyra Cloud Services has partnered with Anthropic, expanding access to Anthropic's Claude models through Amazon Bedrock.

The agreement targets organisations using Amazon Web Services to build and run artificial intelligence projects. Lyra Cloud Services, part of the Lyra Technology Group portfolio and a recent addition from Evergreen, presents the move as part of a broader effort to support customers managing cloud operations alongside AI roll-outs.

Businesses are increasing spending on generative AI, but many are also dealing with the practical demands of infrastructure, governance, data management, and security. In that environment, service providers that can combine cloud support with access to AI models are seeking a larger role in corporate technology projects.

The partnership gives customers access to Claude through Amazon Bedrock while drawing on Lyra Cloud Services' AWS operational expertise. The company says customers need help not only accessing models, but also running AI systems in secure, well-managed cloud environments.

Jahan Kahusi, Chief Executive Officer of Lyra Cloud Services, said: "AI is creating tremendous opportunities for organizations across every industry, but realizing that potential requires more than access to technology. It requires the ability to deploy, manage, optimize, and scale those capabilities within secure, well-architected cloud environments."

He added: "That's where we believe Lyra Cloud Services can create meaningful value for customers, and why we're excited to expand access to Anthropic's Claude models through Amazon Bedrock."

Early users

Lyra Cloud Services cited Rewst and Hatz.ai as early examples of businesses that have already benefited from the relationship. Rewst is described as a multi-tenant managed service provider automation platform that uses Anthropic technology, while Hatz.ai focuses on bringing AI tools to small and medium-sized businesses.

Rewst was presented as an early customer reference point as Lyra Cloud Services formalised its relationship with Anthropic. Its AI automation product, RoboRewsty, helps more than 1,500 managed service providers build and run workflows through natural language.

Frank Price, Chief Product Officer of Rewst, linked the partnership to the company's product development. "AI is central to how we build at Rewst, so when LCS became our cloud partner, Anthropic had to be part of it. LCS delivered on that, and this partnership is the result. For the MSPs in Lyra's ecosystem, that means real access to enterprise AI through a partner already supporting their production environments."

Hatz.ai also framed the arrangement around access for smaller businesses. Jimmy Hatzell, Chief Executive Officer of Hatz.ai, said: "Hatz is built to bring enterprise-grade AI to small and mid-sized businesses, and partnerships like this are exactly how we make that mission possible. Anthropic's models and Lyra Cloud Services' AWS expertise give us the foundation to deliver AI that is secure, scalable, and ready for companies at every stage of growth."

Market context

The announcement comes as more companies move AI work from trials into live use. Lyra Cloud Services pointed to Deloitte research showing worker access to AI rose by 50% in 2025 and that the number of companies with at least 40% of AI projects in production is set to double within six months.

That shift is creating demand for intermediaries that can manage the underlying cloud estate while companies test and deploy AI products. For many organisations, the question is no longer whether to use generative AI, but how to run it without adding operational strain to technology teams.

Lyra Cloud Services says its role is to help customers spend less time managing infrastructure and more time on product development and customer-facing work. It also linked the Anthropic relationship to its broader work in cloud optimisation, modernisation, and AWS operational support.

Broader ecosystem

Another part of the company's pitch is access to Lyra Technology Group's wider network of cloud operators, managed service providers, and technology specialists. That ecosystem is intended to give customers a route into AI adoption through partners already working in production environments across industries.

Evergreen, the owner behind the Lyra platform, describes itself as a long-term home for managed services and software businesses. Within that structure, Lyra Technology Group operates as a collection of independently run technology services companies.

The partnership with Anthropic places Lyra Cloud Services among a growing group of cloud and managed services firms trying to turn demand for AI into repeat infrastructure and support work. It also underlines how model providers are increasingly reaching customers through established cloud channels rather than direct relationships alone.

For Lyra Cloud Services, the immediate message is that AI adoption on AWS is becoming as much an operational services issue as a software one. As Rewst put it, the arrangement gives managed service providers in Lyra's network "real access to enterprise AI through a partner already supporting their production environments."
