Would you pay $20 for an AI-powered browser? Opera is betting on it with the release of its $19.90 (per month) "next generation AI browser," Opera Neon, meant for people who use AI every day. The Norwegian company first announced Neon in May and has now launched it to a limited number of users.
According to Opera, "it's a browser built to not only let you browse the web, but to also use agentic AI to act for you and with you as you browse and work on complex projects. Opera Neon moves beyond a simple AI chat to execute tasks, create code, and deliver outcomes directly within the browser experience."
Opera Neon includes features such as Tasks, which acts as your own workspaces to use AI for things like comparing and analyzing sources. There's also Cards, which is made up of reusable AI prompts, versus having to rewrite the same prompt over and over again. You can make your own prompts or pull them from the community's collection.

Then there's Neon Do, which works with a Task to navigate the web for checking sources, looking at information, completing forms and more.
Opera is hoping that this "premium, subscription-based browser" will entice users enough to pay $19.90 per month, rather than use free options such as Google's Gemini-powered Chrome features. You can join the waitlist to try it yourself, with Opera claiming more spots will become available soon.
