amazon has launched a new ai model, Nova Act, which is designed to perform tasks, such as online purchases, in its browser. For now, it is only available for developers in a “preview of research”, but amazon is also expanding access to their other Nova ai models through a web portal, which makes them easier to find and use.
<a target="_blank" href="https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/innovation-at-amazon/amazon-nova-website-sdk”>Nova law It is a new model whose function sounds similar to Openai operating agent. amazon says that Act can make web searches, buy or answer questions about what is on the screen, including the option to perform tasks at a time. You can also recognize more detailed instructions, such as saying “not to accept the sale of insurance” while making a purchase. Currently, ACT is only accessible to developers, but amazon says that it is already being put to use some online tasks in the updated Alexa Plus assistant.

ACT joins the other NOVA models announced for the first time in December 2024, which includes a trio of “comprehensive” models, together with image and videos generators.

Previously, the models were only available through amazon Bedrock, a platform of ai Models within amazon Web Services that offers access to Nova along with third -party models of Deepseek, Anthrope, Meta and more.
