Cohere

Own your AI — enterprise generative models, embeddings, and search you can deploy privately.

What is Cohere?

Cohere is an enterprise AI platform built around data control and deployment flexibility — its models run in the cloud, your VPC, or fully on-premises. The product family spans Command (a high-performance generative model for agentic, multimodal, multilingual tasks), Embed (semantic text representations for search and retrieval), Rerank (relevance optimization for search results), and Transcribe (speech-to-text across 14 languages), plus North, an enterprise AI workplace platform, and Compass for intelligent business search. Cohere targets large organizations and counts Oracle, Dell, RBC, Fujitsu, SAP, Salesforce, and Accenture among referenced customers. Developers can get a free, rate-limited Trial API key for experimentation, but it is not permitted for production or commercial use; production access is usage-based per token, with dedicated Model Vault deployments priced hourly or monthly.
