Where Nova Pro 1.0 sits on price
At $3.20 per million output tokens, Nova Pro 1.0 is a mid tier model — 1.5× the median output price of $2.08, which puts it cheaper than 40% and pricier than 60% of the models we track. It sits 4th cheapest of the 5 Amazon models we track. Output costs 4.0× input, the usual spread — trim both, starting with the answer length.
What real workloads cost on Nova Pro 1.0
These three workloads are the ones teams actually run on a mid-priced model — a $3.20/1M model is not bought for the same job as one ten times the price.
| Workload | Per request | Per month |
|---|---|---|
| Support chatbot — 500 conversations/day (5K in / 1.4K out) Conversation history re-sent each turn — the classic prompt-caching win. | $0.0085 | $127 |
| Document pipeline — 10K docs/day (3K in / 500 out) Batch-friendly: no user waiting, so a ~50% batch discount usually applies. | $0.004 | $1200 |
| Small app — 1K requests/day (500 in / 150 out) The baseline most side projects actually run at. | $0.0009 | $26.40 |

Frequently asked questions
› How much does the Nova Pro 1.0 API cost?
Nova Pro 1.0 costs $0.8 per million input tokens and $3.20 per million output tokens and no discounted cached-input tier. That works out to roughly 312,500 output tokens per dollar.
› What does the support chatbot workload cost on Nova Pro 1.0?
Support chatbot — 500 conversations/day (5K in / 1.4K out) costs about $0.0085 per request and $127 per month on Nova Pro 1.0. Conversation history re-sent each turn — the classic prompt-caching win.
› What does it cost to fill Nova Pro 1.0's 300K context window?
Sending 300K of input in a single request costs $0.24 at $0.8 per million tokens — before any output. There is no cached-input tier on this model, so every repeat of that context is billed at full price. This is why large context windows are cheap to advertise and expensive to actually use.
› Is Nova Pro 1.0 worth the price?
Nova Pro 1.0 sits in the middle of the market (4 of 5 by price within Amazon). The honest test is a routing experiment: send the same 200 real requests to this model and to a tier below, and compare failure rate against the price gap — most teams find a majority of traffic never needed the pricier model.
