Cohere Inc. is a Canadian‑founded generative‑AI company launched in 2019 by former Google Brain researchers. Built around large‑language‑model families such as Command R/R+, Command A, and high‑precision Rerank APIs, Cohere focuses on enterprise and regulated‑industry use cases—finance, healthcare, manufacturing, energy, and the public sector—rather than consumer chatbots. “Attention Is All You Need” transformer paper—continues to steer Cohere’s mission to deliver secure, domain‑tuned LLMs for real‑world business workflows.

Deploy Command or Rerank side‑by‑side with Azure AI Search, store embeddings in Azure Vector DBs, and enjoy unified billing plus data‑residency controls.
