Nova 2 Lite model profile

Evidence snapshot:

Nova 2 Lite is a Amazon model profile with a 1,000,000-token context window. The dated catalog snapshot records text, image, video, file modalities and interfaces for file input, reasoning controls, text generation, tool calling, video input.

Nova 2 Lite is an independent knowledge profile. It does not claim that Kendr hosts the model, quote a Kendr customer price, promise API availability, or advertise a Kendr routing receipt.

Nova 2 Lite accepts text, image, video, and file and returns text. The snapshot records file input, reasoning controls, text generation, tool calling, video input, and vision as capabilities or interfaces.

The dated reference snapshot lists $0.3 input and $2.5 output per million tokens.

The 2026-08-12 snapshot includes 1 Artificial Analysis index. Publisher-reported launch results are labeled and are not presented as Kendr measurements; scores from different suites are not treated as interchangeable.

No comparable popularity rank or traffic share is present in the 2026-08-12 snapshot. No comparable routing rank or traffic-share observation is attached to this dated profile; missing adoption evidence is not estimated.

Profile data was reviewed for the 2026-08-12 snapshot. Claims retain their source dates, and unavailable fields are shown as unavailable instead of estimated.
