Amazon SageMaker Studio is now linked to the updated AWS sign‑up flow. New users can register with a Google, GitHub, Apple or Amazon identity, or just an email, and skip the usual phone verification and credit‑card step. After sign‑up, the service creates a fully configured Studio environment in roughly 20 seconds and credits the account with $100 in free‑tier usage for notebooks, training and deployments.
Why it matters
Individual developers and small startups can start experimenting with AI models in minutes without setting up a full AWS account or paying upfront.
