Overview

Amazon Nova Micro 1.0 is a text-only model that delivers the lowest latency responses in the Amazon Nova family of models at a very low cost. With a context length...

History

Nova Micro 1.0 became available via the Amazon (AWS) API on 2024-12-05.

Training & availability

Training data has a knowledge cutoff of 2024-10-31 — information about events after that date is unlikely to appear in the model's responses. Amazon (AWS) has not released the underlying model weights — access is via their hosted API only.

Capabilities

Context window: 128K tokens.
Input modalities: text.

Recommended for: cheap.

Limitations

The knowledge cutoff is 17 months old — this model will not know about recent events, releases, or API changes.
Text-only — cannot process images, audio, or video inputs.

Pricing

Input: $0.0350 per 1M tokens
Output: $0.1400 per 1M tokens

Quick start

Minimal example using the OpenRouter API. Copy, paste, replace the key.

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="https://openrouter.ai/api/v1",
    api_key="sk-or-...",
)
resp = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="amazon/nova-micro-v1",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum computing in one sentence."}],
)
print(resp.choices[0].message.content)

Price vs quality

Budget pricing

Priced low — good for high-volume tasks. Quality tier pending more benchmark coverage.
