What is Cohere?
Cohere is an enterprise AI platform providing large language models through an API. Its Command family powers text generation, chat, and agentic workflows, with Command A+ available as a free, Apache 2.0 licensed open-weight model that runs on two H100 GPUs and supports 48 languages. Embed provides multimodal text and image embeddings for semantic search in 100+ languages, Rerank improves search result ranking, and Transcribe handles speech-to-text. Cohere also offers North, an enterprise workplace AI platform, and Compass, a search and discovery system, both custom priced.
API access uses free, rate-limited trial keys for prototyping and pay-as-you-go production keys billed monthly or at a $250 threshold. Command R costs $0.15 per million input tokens and $0.60 per million output tokens; Command R7B costs $0.0375 input and $0.15 output per million tokens. Model Vault, a dedicated managed deployment option, starts at $4-5 per hour per instance for Embed and Rerank models.
