Command R

Command R is a generative artificial intelligence model developed by Cohere, designed to optimize long-context tasks such as retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and the use of external APIs and tools. This AI software enhances enterprise applications by providing accurate, low-latency responses based on large-scale data analysis and integration with external knowledge sources.

Key features:
- Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG): Accesses private knowledge bases to generate informed responses, crucial for enterprises leveraging internal data securely and efficiently.
- Integration with Cohere's Embed and Rerank Models: Enhances search capabilities and information utilization from vast corpora, improving relevance and personalization of retrieved information.
- Tool Use: Automates sophisticated tasks and workflows using internal and external tools like databases, CRMs, and search engines.
- Multilingual Support: Supports 10 major languages of global business, ensuring applicability across diverse linguistic contexts.
- Extended Context Window: Processes up to 128k tokens, enabling more comprehensive RAG use cases.
- Competitive Pricing: Offers a cost-effective model for processing large amounts of context.
- Clear Citations: Provides source material context, reducing the risk of inaccuracies.
