Have you used vercel before? It's a lot more than just a layer on AWS. They really understand specifically what Front end engineers need to be productive with their external stakeholders (ie: design, product, etc). I'm sure other products do this now but they were, as far as I know, the first to automatically deploy a version of your app by PR, for example.

Can you do this yourself? Yeah, obviously. But it's a build vs buy conversation and for a lot of people the value that this tooling gives you immediately is worth the buy.
