Aria’s capabilities extend to customer support as well, utilizing Opera’s extensive database of support documentation and product knowledge to provide users with valuable assistance. The browser AI strategy of Opera centers around creating a seamless, innovative, and coherent user experience.
Harnessing the Power of Aria
Aria is not only a web expert but also a browser expert, making it a versatile AI companion for users. Leveraging the advanced capabilities of OpenAI’s GPT technology, Aria enables users to unleash their creativity and maximize productivity.

Opera’s Progress in Browser AI
Aria represents a significant milestone in Opera’s ongoing efforts to integrate generative AI services into their browsers. Earlier this year, Opera introduced ChatGPT in the sidebar of their desktop browser, offering users AI-based prompts for enhanced browsing experiences. Additionally, Opera One, a redesigned version of their flagship browser, was launched to accommodate a broader range of generative AI features through its modular design. The introduction of Aria, the browser AI, signifies Opera’s commitment to empowering users to interact with the web in unprecedented ways, with AI as their trusted companion.
Getting Started with Aria
Aria is available as a free service in more than 180 countries, including the EU. Opera users can access Aria by downloading the newest version of Opera One (developer version) on their desktops. Android users can test Aria by downloading the latest beta version of the Opera browser from the Google Play Store. To gain access to Aria, testers need to create an Opera account if they don’t have one already. Once the account is created, users will receive notifications via email or within the product regarding their whitelisting status. Once whitelisted, Aria can be accessed through the settings of Opera for Android beta or via the browser sidebar of Opera One.
With the unveiling of Aria, Opera is revolutionizing the browsing experience by seamlessly integrating AI into its web browser. Aria empowers users with a wide range of AI capabilities, from generating text and code to providing customer support using Opera’s vast knowledge base. By harnessing the power of OpenAI’s GPT technology and Opera’s Composer infrastructure, Aria is poised to redefine browsing and productivity. Users can now explore the limitless possibilities of AI collaboration, experiencing a new era of browsing with Aria by their side.
