Nova Micro is Amazon's fastest and most efficient text-only model, optimized for speed and cost in real-time applications. With a 128K token context window and very low latency, it excels at text summarization, content classification, translation, and interactive chat where responsiveness matters. Designed as the entry-level member of the Nova family, Micro handles text-in, text-out tasks including simple mathematical reasoning, basic coding, interactive brainstorming, and automated FAQ generation. While it lacks vision and video capabilities, its speed and cost efficiency make it well suited to customer-facing chat, content processing pipelines, and quick analytical tasks. Nova Micro supports prompt caching, function calling for tool use, and customization through fine-tuning or model distillation to improve accuracy on domain-specific tasks. The model understands and generates text in over 200 languages, with particularly strong performance in major languages. Launched in December 2024, Nova Micro serves developers who need immediate inference speed without vision requirements, making it suitable for latency-sensitive applications.
