The billing gotcha
Amazon Nova is billed through AWS Bedrock rather than a standalone Nova account: the token estimate below covers model input and output charges, while your real invoice can also include regional AWS data-transfer, guardrail, knowledge-base, or orchestration costs. Nova's batch discount applies to eligible asynchronous Bedrock jobs, so selecting a batch share is only realistic when your application can submit and collect work later instead of waiting on Converse synchronously.
