Amazon Introduces Nova Act for browser automation

Amazon has unveiled Nova Act, a new AI model designed to automate web browser tasks and build AI agents. This research preview, from the Amazon AGI San Francisco Lab, allows AI to take control of web browsers and perform independent actions. The goal is to create agents capable of performing tangible, multi-step tasks in diverse digital and physical environments, such as organizing a wedding or handling complex IT tasks. Amazon envisions agents as more than just responders, but as entities capable of performing these tasks to increase business productivity.

To help facilitate the development of these agents, Amazon is releasing a research preview of the Amazon Nova Act SDK. The SDK enables developers to create agents capable of automating web tasks like submitting out-of-office notifications, scheduling calendar holds, or enabling automatic email replies. It breaks down complex workflows into dependable "atomic commands," such as searching, checking out, or interacting with specific interface elements. This SDK supports browser manipulation via Playwright, API calls, Python integrations, and parallel threading to overcome web page load delays, further enhancing accuracy and control.
