Today, we are announcing the general availability of Web Answer on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore. With Web Answer, agent builders get a synthesized, source-cited answer to a natural-language question with a single tool call. They no longer build a search, retrieve, synthesize, and citation pipeline themselves.

If you have built agents that need to answer questions from current web sources, you know the pattern: call a search API, decide which results to trust, retrieve and clean page content, prompt a model to synthesize, and engineer citation extraction so the output traces back to a source. Every step is code you maintain, and every step is another place things can go wrong: hallucination when evidence is insufficient, stale content when the index moves, and broken attribution when a claim and its source drift apart.

The Web Answer collapses that entire pipeline into one request. You send a question. You get back a cited answer in seconds. In this post, we explain what Web Answer does, compare it with Web Search on AgentCore, show how it works and what it returns, and walk through adding Web Answer to a gateway and calling it from an agent.
