AWS brings vibe coding into enterprise private clouds via Superblocks deal

Superblocks, a startup building "vibe coding" tools for business users, has signed a multi-year joint marketing agreement with Amazon Web Services that embeds its platform inside AWS customers' private clouds. The deal, announced Monday, lets enterprises offer Superblocks' no-code app builder to internal users without sending data to external model providers or third-party databases.

Superblocks, a startup building "vibe coding" tools for business users, has signed a multi-year joint marketing agreement with Amazon Web Services that embeds its platform inside AWS customers' private clouds.

The deal, announced Monday, lets enterprises offer Superblocks' no-code app builder to internal users without sending data to external model providers or third-party databases. Apps built with Superblocks on AWS will spin up Amazon Aurora databases within the customer's own cloud account and route inference through Amazon Bedrock, AWS's AI gateway service.

"We're going to bring it to your data inside your private cloud," Superblocks co-founder and CEO Brad Menezes told TechCrunch. Data stays within the customer's AWS account, governed by existing audit, encryption, and network controls.

AWS does not yet offer its own vibe-coding agent for business users. It has Kiro, a developer-focused AI coding tool, and Quick, a Copilot-style assistant. Neither competes directly with consumer vibe-coding platforms like Lovable or Replit. The Superblocks partnership fills that gap without AWS having to build the product itself.

AWS will help sell Superblocks to enterprise customers through its Marketplace channel. An AWS spokesperson said the company supports partners "where we see strong customer demand and alignment with how customers want to build."

Superblocks has 50 employees and has raised $60 million to date, including a Series A announced in June 2025.

The partnership signals a broader shift: vibe coding is moving from a consumer curiosity to an enterprise procurement category, and cloud providers are positioning themselves as the delivery channel.
