Nova 2 Lite now available on Vercel AI Gateway

You can now access Amazon's latest model Nova 2 Lite via Vercel's AI Gateway with no other provider accounts required. Nova 2 Lite is a reasoning model for everyday workloads that can process text, images, and videos to generate text.

To use Nova 2 Lite, set model to amazon/nova-2-lite in the AI SDK. Extending thinking is disabled by default. To enable reasoning for this model, set maxReasoningEffort in the providerOptions. The reasoning content is redacted and displays as such, but users are still charged for these tokens.
