- Opera Neon is a fully agentic browser capable of performing tasks
- The new premium browser is only subscribed and coming soon
- You can join the waiting list today
Opera Neon is a new Premium subscription web browser that can understand your natural language commands thanks to AI while performing a variety of tasks for you.
For example, you can ask Opera Neon to produce a detailed report, make a website or even code projects like games, all in the browser.
“We are at a point where AI can fundamentally change the way we use the internet and perform all kinds of tasks in the browser. Opera Neon brings this to the fingertips of our users “,” said Henrik Lexow, principal director of AI products in Opera.
“We see it as a collaborative platform to shape the next chapter of agent navigation with our community.”
Entirely agentic on the web
Of course, you can currently chat with the AI in the standard opera browser, which has access to Aria AI and Chatgpt in the sidebar, but Opera Neon is a fully aged browser, which means that you can ask him to perform tasks for you as well as discuss or search with AI.
This could include filling out a form that appears on the website you consult, making a hotel reservation or even shopping. Better still, it does all this locally in the browser, without risking your privacy or your safety.
The AI agent inside Opera Neon has already been presented by Opera as a browser operator and you can give it tasks with simple guests like “keep me informed of the last breakthroughs of artificial intelligence”, and it would collect regularly and summarize the most relevant items.
So, instead of wading in an endless news feed, you will get what matters most, carefully packed.
You can also chat with Opera Neon as if it were an AI chatbot, just like Chatgpt, and it can also search for the web to find answers.
Discuss, do and do
Opera Neon bubbles its main functionality with three main options: discuss, do and do.
The cat is the function of chatbot. Here, you can ask IA contextual questions on the web page you consult and search for the web.
Doing is the place where Opera Neon can interact with the website you consult. We are talking about things like filling out forms, reserving reservations and shopping. This is the technology that we have already known as the Bowser operator.
Doing is the really new part of the Neon Opera. Here you can ask the browser to do something for you, and it will interpret what you mean, then go and do it for you. Once you have responsible for doing something, you are free to go and do something else.
Opera Neon looks like one of the most exciting uses of the AI that I have seen for a while. The prospect of being able to ask questions about the AI on the website that you are currently consulting in the browser and finding reliable answers is not new, but the agental qualities of the browser seem incredibly precious.
Opera Neon has not yet been released, but Opera says you can join the waiting list today. In the meantime, Opera has produced this video to explain what an AI agent is:
