Cohere

The company operates an enterprise-focused AI infrastructure and application platform. It invests in the research, training, and optimisation of large language and embedding models, then exposes them via APIs, managed inference environments, and higher-level workplace and search products. Value is created by enabling enterprises and development teams to integrate text generation, semantic search, ranking, agents, and discovery into their own systems without building and operating foundation models in-house. Additional value comes from secure, compliant deployments (including dedicated model hosting) and enterprise-grade tooling for retrieval-augmented generation, knowledge management, and productivity use cases. Distribution occurs both directly and through major cloud providers, allowing customers to consume models within existing cloud contracts and infrastructures.

It also offers secure, private deployments and model hosting for organisations with strict compliance needs, and works with cloud partners to distribute its models via their marketplaces and infrastructures.
