Frequently asked questions
Free access, setup, and what to expect.
Free API access for Nova Lite is listed through Vercel AI Gateway, but a specific request or token allowance isn’t available in the listed data. Check the Nova Lite provider pricing and rate limits for what’s included and any account requirements.
To use Nova Lite, choose one of the listed Nova Lite API providers and follow the provider’s account and API-key setup guide. Copy the Nova Lite model ID and connection settings for your chosen provider into your app or API client. Model IDs can differ between providers. API requests go directly to the provider; Free Models is a comparison site.
Nova Lite accepts text, image, and pdf as listed input formats. Listed output formats include text. Image or audio input support does not imply image or audio generation. Check the chosen provider’s Nova Lite documentation for supported file types and request formats.
Nova Lite has a listed context window of 300K tokens. Tokens are small pieces of content rather than a word count. Instructions, conversation history, and other inputs use context space, and the response also needs room. The maximum output length for Nova Lite may be smaller than the context window and can vary by provider.
Nova Lite has tool calling support listed; reasoning support isn’t listed. Reasoning enables additional processing for complex problems. Tool calling allows a model to request functions that your app executes. Check the chosen provider’s documentation for capability availability and setup.
No benchmark results are listed for Nova Lite yet. Missing scores don’t establish poor performance. Compare scores within the same benchmark: coding indexes, Elo ratings, and win rates measure different things. The index comparison charts include only scored free models listed on Free Models. Evaluate Nova Lite on examples from your own task alongside context size and provider limits.
