Opera Neon

Category: Consumer Browser (Agentic AI Browser)

Opera Neon is an AI-powered browser built by Opera that integrates agentic capabilities directly into the browsing experience. It is designed to act on your behalf: processing research tasks, managing tabs, interpreting web content, and delivering finished output through specialized agents. Unlike traditional browsers, Neon operates with a task-oriented workflow where agents handle agenda creation, web research, document generation, and tool orchestration.
