What it is.

Toronto-based model house focused on enterprise RAG, search, and orchestration. Embed and Rerank are the most-deployed components — Cohere quietly powers retrieval inside a long list of named Fortune 500 stacks. Command A added agentic tool-use in 2025.

Frequently asked.

Why use Cohere Embed over OpenAI embeddings?

Embed 4 leads on multilingual retrieval benchmarks and offers per-region deployment. The most common production pattern is Cohere embed plus a different generation model.

Is Cohere deployable on-prem?

Yes. Cohere has a documented on-prem product for regulated buyers, including air-gapped environments.

What is Coral?

Cohere's enterprise agent platform. Plays the role LangChain plays for buyers who want a single vendor across retrieval, generation, and orchestration.
