Opera Limited, a leading global browser and AI agent company listed on NASDAQ under the ticker OPRA, has announced significant upgrades to the AI capabilities of its free browser portfolio. These enhancements, set to roll out in the coming weeks, aim to deliver faster, more integrated AI tools to millions of users while introducing a premium Opera Neon browser for advanced AI-driven browsing.
Opera upgrades its free flagship and GX browsers with enhanced AI tools.
New AI features include faster models, better integration, and higher usage limits.
Access to open-source local models included in free browser upgrades.
Premium Opera Neon browser offers agentic AI for task delegation and automation.
Upgrades cater to both everyday users and advanced AI power users.
Rollout follows the launch of Opera Neon for waitlisted users.
Opera’s flagship browsers, including Opera One, Opera GX, Opera Air, and mobile versions, will soon feature upgraded AI capabilities at no cost. Powered by OpenAI’s GPT and Google’s Gemini models, the Aria AI assistant will deliver faster performance, seamless browser integration, and access to open-source local models. These enhancements ensure users experience improved efficiency and higher usage limits, making AI-driven browsing accessible to hundreds of millions of monthly active users. The upgrades reflect Opera’s commitment to providing robust AI tools without compromising its free browser offerings.
The newly launched Opera Neon browser targets AI power users with agentic AI capabilities. Unlike the free Aria assistant, Neon enables task delegation, allowing users to automate repetitive tasks, conduct web research, and manage multiple projects simultaneously. The browser’s Tasks feature supports parallel project management, with AI agents navigating websites and filling out forms on users’ behalf. This premium offering, now rolling out to waitlisted users, complements Opera’s free browsers by catering to those requiring advanced AI functionalities.
Opera’s two-tier strategy ensures accessibility for all users. The free browser portfolio provides everyday AI support through Aria, while Opera Neon offers a premium experience for complex tasks. This approach leverages Opera’s 30 years of browser expertise and sustainable monetization to deliver both free and premium AI solutions. As Krystian Kolondra, EVP Browsers, stated, “Our users already have access to free AI built directly into their browsers. That AI is about to get a powerful upgrade. Should they need more advanced capabilities like agentic browsing and task delegation, the premium Opera Neon product offers them a seamless upgrade path.”
The upcoming AI upgrades reinforce Opera’s position as a leader in browser innovation. By enhancing its free browsers and introducing the premium Neon browser, Opera empowers users with tailored AI tools, driving efficiency and productivity across diverse browsing needs.
