Amazon Nova Multimodal Embeddings, launched in AWS GovCloud (US-West), offers a unified embedding model that processes diverse data types—including text, images, video, and audio—enabling cross-modal search and retrieval with leading accuracy. This reduces complexity and silos caused by using multiple specialized embedding models.

It supports inputs up to 8K tokens and 30-second audiovisual segments, with asynchronous and synchronous APIs for different latency needs. Organizations can balance embedding dimensions for accuracy and cost, expanding possibilities for AI-powered applications in secure government cloud environments.
