About

Building the thinking layer for software.

We’re a small team obsessed with one idea: intelligence should be a primitive every product can build on.

From a research demo to a platform teams trust.

Nova started in 2023 as a reasoning experiment that refused to just autocomplete. It planned. It checked itself. It followed through. That difference — between a model that guesses and one that thinks — became the whole company.

Today Nova powers products for teams from two-person startups to public companies, serving billions of requests a day with the same core belief: the best AI disappears into work that simply gets done.

What we believe.

Reasoning over recall

Anyone can memorize the internet. We build models that think through a problem and show their work.

Trust is the product

Privacy, transparency, and reliability are not features. They are the foundation everything else sits on.

Get out of the way

The best intelligence is invisible. It should feel less like a tool and more like a great collaborator.
