Frequently Asked Questions about Amazon Nova Micro
How much does the Amazon Nova Micro API cost per 1M tokens?+
Amazon Nova Micro by Amazon is priced at $0.035 per 1M input tokens and $0.14 per 1M output tokens. With prompt caching enabled, cached input tokens cost $0.009 per 1M tokens, and asynchronous Batch API requests receive a 50% discount.
Should I use a $20/month subscription or the Amazon Nova Micro pay-as-you-go API?+
A flat $20/month consumer subscription is predictable for daily interactive chat and manual coding. However, if you are building software, running automated workflows, or sending low-to-moderate volume with prompt caching enabled, the pay-as-you-go API is typically far more cost-effective and offers higher rate limits without manual UI caps.
How many words and pages fit in Amazon Nova Micro's context window?+
Amazon Nova Micro features a 128K tokens context window, which equals approximately 96,000 English words or ~256 standard single-spaced pages in a single prompt. Its maximum output generation per turn is 8,192 tokens.
Can I run Amazon Nova Micro locally on my own GPU (Open Weights)?+
No, Amazon Nova Micro is a proprietary closed-weights model hosted by Amazon. It cannot be downloaded for local GPU execution and must be accessed via Amazon's official API or cloud platform.
Does Amazon train on data sent to the Amazon Nova Micro API, and is commercial use allowed?+
API payloads are excluded from model training by default. License tier: Proprietary Commercial API (Amazon Terms). Full commercial ownership of generated outputs. Supported deployment channels include: Amazon Cloud API & Enterprise Endpoints.
How does Amazon Nova Micro perform on coding and reasoning benchmarks?+
Amazon Nova Micro achieves a composite Intelligence Index of 34/100, scoring 23% on SWE-bench Verified, 33.5% on GPQA Diamond, 52% on MMLU-Pro, and 1195 pts on Chatbot Arena Elo.
What is Amazon Nova Micro best used for?+
Amazon Nova Micro is best suited for: Automação corporativa, engenharia de software, agentes autônomos e pipelines de produção com Amazon. Assessment: O Amazon Nova Micro da Amazon oferece um equilíbrio sólido entre inteligência, velocidade e eficiência de custos.

AI Glossary & Architecture Concepts
View full glossary →Key machine learning concepts and benchmarks relevant to Amazon Nova Micro:
The basic unit of text that a language model processes, typically representing about 3 to 4 English characters or roughly 0.75 words. For example, the sentence "Artificial intelligence is fast" breaks down into about 5 tokens.
A standardized evaluation suite used to objectively measure and rank an AI model's capabilities across specific tasks — such as SWE-bench Verified for software engineering, AIME for competitive math, or MMLU for general knowledge.
The maximum number of tokens a model can consider at once — both the input it reads and the output it writes. A 1,000,000-token context window can hold roughly 750,000 English words in a single request.
The ability of a language model to recognize when an external capability is needed and output structured JSON arguments to invoke external APIs, databases, or terminal commands. The runtime executes the tool and passes results back to the model.
An open standard created by Anthropic that allows AI applications and agents to connect seamlessly to local filesystems, development environments, and third-party APIs via standardized server interfaces.
A cost and latency optimization where inference providers store pre-computed attention states for repeated prompt prefixes. Reusing cached tokens typically slashes API input costs by 50% to 90% and cuts TTFT substantially.
Benchmark scores, token prices, and rate limits evolve rapidly as AI labs release model updates. Always verify current specifications and pricing on the official provider documentation.
