amazon/nova-2-liteAmazon Nova 2 Lite — built for paperwork
Nova 2 Lite reads documents natively over a 1M context at 0.66 credits per 1K input.
Takes the document itself — layout, tables and all
A million tokens in
Reads images and video too
Drives agents and function-calling pipelines
11 output tokens on a time-arithmetic question
Here is a scanned supplier invoice. Pull out the vendor, date, line items, tax and total.
Read this contract PDF and list every clause that exposes us to a penalty.
Yes. Top up your Tchavi account with Orange Money, MTN MoMo, M-Pesa or another mobile money operator. No bank card is needed. Credits land as soon as the payment is confirmed and are deducted as you use them.
Yes. Keep your current OpenAI SDK, just change the base URL to Tchavi's (shown in the API tab) and use your Tchavi key. The rest of your code stays the same.
import Tchavi from '@tchavi/sdk';
const client = new Tchavi({ apiKey: 'API_KEY' });
const response = await client.chat.completions.create({
model: 'nova-2-lite',
messages: [
{
"role": "user",
"content": "Hello!"
}
],
});
console.log(response.choices[0].message.content);
console.log('Credits used:', response.tchavi.credits_used);Every parameter this model accepts on the API. Check the SDK for full typings.
modelRequiredID of the chat model (e.g. `nova-2-lite`).
messagesRequiredConversation messages. Each item has a `role` (system/user/assistant) and a `content` that's either a plain string or an array of content blocks (`text`, `image_url`, `document_url`).
temperature1Sampling temperature between 0 and 2. Higher values = more random.
max_tokensMaximum number of tokens to generate in the response.
max_completion_tokensOpenAI alias for `max_tokens`. Either field works; if both are sent, `max_completion_tokens` wins.
streamfalseIf true, partial message deltas are streamed as Server-Sent Events.
toolsFunction-calling toolbox. Pass an array of `{ type: "function", function: { name, description, parameters } }`. Returned tool calls land in `choices[].message.tool_calls`. Only models with `supportsTools: true` accept this.
tool_choiceHow the model picks among tools: `"auto"` (default), `"none"` to force a plain text reply, or `{ type: "function", function: { name } }` to force a specific tool. Only with `supportsTools: true`.
top_p1Nucleus sampling: only tokens in the top `top_p` probability mass are considered.
seedInteger seed for deterministic output. The same seed + identical request yields the same completion when supported by the provider. OpenAI honours it; Anthropic ignores.
n1Number of completions to generate in one call. Defaults to 1; each extra completion is billed.
stream_optionsStreaming options, e.g. `{ "include_usage": true }` to receive a final SSE chunk with usage counts. Effective only when `stream: true`.
stopUp to 4 sequences where the API will stop generating further tokens.
frequency_penalty0Between -2.0 and 2.0. Positive values penalize tokens that have appeared frequently.
presence_penalty0Between -2.0 and 2.0. Positive values encourage the model to talk about new topics.
userEnd-user identifier passed to the upstream provider for abuse / moderation tracking. Should be stable per end-user.
logit_biasPer-token logit bias `{ "<tokenId>": <-100..100>, ... }`. OpenAI-specific; Anthropic ignores silently.
messages[].content[].image_urlAttach an image on a user message. Pass a content block `{ "type": "image_url", "image_url": { "url": ... } }`. PNG / JPEG / WebP, up to 4 per request. Only models with `supportsImageInput: true` accept this block (e.g. `gpt-4o`, `claude-opus-4-7`).
messages[].content[].document_urlAttach a PDF on a user message. Pass a content block `{ "type": "document_url", "document_url": { "url": ... } }`. Up to 5 PDFs per request. Only models with `supportsDocuments: true` accept this block (e.g. `claude-sonnet-4-6`, `gpt-4.1`).
Estimated over 30 days, for a typical message: ~500 input + ~150 output tokens, billed to the thousandth of a credit.
