Amazon is back with Nova 2.0, a substantial upgrade over prior Amazon Nova models and demonstrating particular strength in agentic capabilities
Amazon has released Nova 2.0 Pro (Preview), its new flagship model; Nova 2.0 Lite, focused on speed and lower cost; and Nova 2.0 Omni, a multimodal model handling text, image, video and speech inputs with text and image outputs.
Key benchmarking takeaways:
Amazon back amongst top AI players: This is Amazon’s latest release since Nova Premier and Amazon’s first release of reasoning models. Nova 2.0 Pro jumps 30 points in the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index over Premier and Lite 38 points. This represents a huge increase in capabilities and Amazon’s return to being amongst the top AI players.
Strengths in agentic capabilities: Agentic capabilities including tool calling is a strength of the models, Nova 2.0 Pro scores 93% on τ²-Bench Telecom and 80% on IFBench on medium and high reasoning budgets respectively (complete benchmarks for high reasoning coming soon). This places Nova 2.0 Pro Preview amongst the leading models in these benchmarks.
Multimodal: Nova 2.0 Omni is one of few models, alongside most notably the Gemini model series, that can natively handle text, image, video and speech inputs. This is a new differentiator for Amazon’s Nova model series.
Competitive pricing: Amazon has priced Nova 2.0 Pro at $1.25/$10 per million input/output tokens, and considering token usage the model took $662 to run our Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index. This is substantially less than other frontier models like Claude 4.5 Sonnet ($817) and Gemini 3 Pro ($1201), but remains above others including Kimi K2 Thinking ($380). Nova 2.0 Lite and Omni are both priced at $0.3/$2.5 per million input/output tokens.

Nova 2.0 Pro Preview token usage is on the lower end of peer models. Together with pricing at $1.25/$10 per million input/output tokens, this places Nova 2.0 Pro Preview as costing less than frontier models to run our Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index evaluations. Nova 2.0 Lite and Omni are both priced at $0.3/$2.5 per million input/output tokens and are cheaper than most other reasoning models.
Nova 2.0 Pro Preview demonstrates particular strength in agentic capabilities, scoring 93% on τ²-Bench Telecom and 80% on IFBench on medium and high reasoning budgets respectively (complete benchmarks for high reasoning coming soon). This places it amongst the leading models in these benchmarks.
Individual results from our Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index set of evaluations:
Factual accuracy and reliability, however, is where the models trail: Nova 2.0 series of models do not score well on the AA-Omniscience Index, driven primarily by a high hallucination rate
