What Opera Neon is
Opera Neon is an AI-powered browser for macOS and Windows that can open pages, research, fill in forms, and create content for users. Neon Chat uses open pages as context and supports image and video generation, photo-to-video generation, and web app creation. Neon Do works with the current page, manages tabs, runs scheduled tasks, and connects with Google tools. Research options include Deep Research, One-Minute Research, and Local Research agents. Neon Cards save task instructions for reuse across Chat, Do, and Research Agents. The browser supports MCP connections, including Claude Code, Lovable, and n8n. Connections are read-only by default; clicking or filling forms requires explicit permission, and users can pause, stop, or take over Neon Do. Opera says chats and workflows are stored on its servers for 365 days, can be deleted by users, and are not used to train AI models. Neon Do runs in the browser while using cloud LLMs; Neon Chat and most Research Agents run in the cloud. An Opera account is required, and the interface is available in approximately 40 languages. The free plan includes basic AI chat, built-in ad blocking, a free VPN, Browser CLI, and MCP Connector; Standard Plan costs $19.90 a month.
