Command A: Unmatched Performance and Efficiency

Cohere’s Command A 03-2025 model is the most performant Command model to date, delivering 150% of the throughput of its predecessor (Command R+ 08-2024). This model performs great for agentic enterprise tasks, and has significantly improved compute efficiency.

Key Features of Command A

• 256k token context length
• Advanced retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)
• Agentic tool use
• Enterprise-grade security
• Strong multilingual capabilities: The model has been trained in 23 languages: English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Chinese, Russian, Polish, Turkish, Vietnamese, Dutch, Czech, Indonesian, Ukrainian, Romanian, Greek, Hindi, Hebrew, and Persian.
• Text input and output only
• Note: This model doesn't support fine-tuning.

Rerank 3.5: Elevating Enterprise Search

Rerank 3.5 is Cohere’s latest AI search foundation model designed to enhance enterprise search and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems. The model features enhanced reasoning capabilities for understanding complex user queries, broad compatibility with various data types (including long documents, emails, tables, JSON, and code), and superior multilingual performance across over 100 languages.

Key Features of Rerank 3.5

• Improved reasoning capabilities: Improved understanding of complex user queries
• Versatile data support: Compatible with long documents, emails, tables, JSON, and code
• Multilingual Support: Covers more than 100 languages, including significant business languages such as English, Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish.
• Better Search Results: In tests on financial data, Rerank 3.5 performed +23.4% better than Hybrid Search and +30.8% better than BM25 (Best Matching 25) (a ranking function used in search engines and information retrieval systems to find the relevance of documents to a specific search query.)
