Reason why they've been silent on aiWare for so long. Reason why no details on Veritone Hire plans, not even a web page on Veritone Hire. For me, all points to AWS.
I think Amazon decision to reduce consumption of Pando, is again, due to the Veritone AWS plans. Want to make it look like they have no interest in Veritone. Don't want to tip off the competition.
