About Command R
Command R is a 35-billion parameter large language model developed by Cohere, tailored for enterprise-scale AI applications. It is optimized for long-context tasks such as retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and tool use, emphasizing high performance coupled with strong accuracy. This model excels in reasoning, summarization, and question answering across ten key languages. Its use spans various enterprise applications, automating complex tasks that involve interacting with systems like CRMs, APIs, and databases. The model can process up to 128,000 tokens and integrates seamlessly with Cohere's Embed and Rerank models, enhancing accuracy and efficiency in large-scale tasks. Additionally, a more powerful iteration, Command R+ with 104 billion parameters, offers even greater capabilities.
