AWS described how to customize embedded chat branding in Amazon Quick

AWS Machine Learning Blog describes how to customize the embedded chat in Amazon Quick visually (CSS, SDK frame options) and through the tone of responses (persona instructions) so that it feels like a native part of a web application without the default Amazon branding.
