Other funding

[edit]

This source mentions that Cohere has raised $50 million in total after their $40 million Series A round, implying that $10 million was raised before that round. However, I can't find any sources that specify from whom that money was raised. Ajshul<talk> 20:22, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Updates and details

[edit]

I am new to Wikipedia and have declared my relationship with the company on my userpage and this Talk page. Please make the following updates:

  • Cohere no longer has offices in Palo Alto. This mention should be removed from the content and the infobox. Correct current locations are San Francisco, Toronto (co-HQs), New York, and London.

Similarly, I'd ask for a slight restructuring of the page to advance clarity and ease of reading. Toward this end, I suggest the introduction of a Partnerships section which would include what is currently the sixth paragraph of the History section, the fourth paragraph of the Product section and additional details, like this (the highlighted text is new to the article):

Partnerships

2023: On June 13, 2023, Oracle announced a partnership with Cohere to provide generative AI services to help organizations automate end-to-end business processes. As a result, Cohere's technology is integrated into Oracle's business applications, including Oracle Fusion Cloud, Oracle NetSuite, and Oracle industry-specific applications.[1] On July 18, 2023, McKinsey announced a collaboration with Cohere, to help organizations integrate generative AI into their operations.[2] Cohere also partnered with software company LivePerson to offer customized large language models for businesses in 2023.[3]

2024: Cohere partnered with Fujitsu in co-developing Takane, a Japanese LLM.[4][5]

2025: In January 2025, in partnership with RBC, Cohere introduced North for Banking, a secure generative AI platform designed to enhance productivity and data security in financial services.[6] A partnership with LG developed a Korean LLM and customized the North platform for the specific needs of Korean companies.[7]

Thank you for your help and consideration,

Thanks for preparing this. The proposed changes look good. Do you have a citation for the updated location information? A WP:PRIMARY source such as a page on the company website should suffice. Go a head and make the changes and WP:PING me here and I will review. ~Kvng (talk) 14:18, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you Kvng for your reply and review. I've made the changes and used the Cohere website as the source for the office details, as per your suggestion. Thanks again, LivingInaCloud (talk) 08:21, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Awards / Recognition section

[edit]

Asking for the inclusion of an Awards (or Recognitions) section in this article to look something like this:

Awards

Cohere was listed on the Forbes AI 50 list in four consecutive years, 2022[1], 2023[2], 2024[3], and 2025[4]

Fortune magazine listed the company on their 50 AI innovators list in 2023.[5]

Cohere was listed on CNBC's Disruptor list in 2023[6] and 2024.[7]

Thanks Kvng for your previous approval. Mind taking a look at this as well? Thank you, LivingInaCloud (talk) 12:36, 25 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@LivingInaCloud Thanks for proposing the changes. I think they look fine so can be added. Ping me when done and I will have a look. Noxoug1 (talk) 12:08, 11 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@User:Noxoug1, thank you for your quick response and review. I have added the new section. Let me know your thoughts. Grateful for your collaboration, LivingInaCloud (talk) 09:01, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

New content additions

[edit]

There have been recent developments that I would like to propose adding to the Partnerships section, in the 2025 listing: In May 2025, Cohere partnered with SAP to bring its models to their software and services.[1] Cohere also partnered with Dell to integrate North into Dell services and simplify the processes of enterprise AI adoption.[2][3]

Cohere entered its initial partnership in the healthcare industry with a collaboration with Ensemble Health Partners, an AI platform for healthcare providers to manage revenue.[4][5]

Noxoug1 and Kvng, would once again appreciate your review; as we've done in the past, I can implement with your approval. Thank you, LivingInaCloud (talk) 10:44, 30 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@LivingInaCloud - looks ok, i tried rephrasing the statements.
In May 2025, Cohere partnered with SAP to integrate its AI models into SAP's Business Suite and make them available through SAP AI Core's generative AI hub. Simultaneously, Cohere announced a collaboration with Dell Technologies, making Dell the first infrastructure provider to offer Cohere North, the company's secure AI workspace platform, for on-premises deployment. Cohere also entered the healthcare sector through a partnership with Ensemble Health Partners, a revenue cycle management company, to deploy agentic AI solutions for healthcare providers' administrative workflows. Noxoug1 (talk) 11:47, 30 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@User:Noxoug1, thank you again for your feedback. I have made the addition using your suggested language. Appreciate the help, LivingInaCloud (talk) 09:29, 2 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Changes to the Lead

[edit]

I'd like to ask the community to consider modifications to the lead of the article to advance readability and introduce new relevant information. My suggestion is that the current lead be replaced with:

Cohere Inc. is a Canadian multinational technology company focused on artifical intelligence. Cohere specializes in large language models and AI products for regulated industries, particularly the finance, healthcare, manufacturing, and energy fields, as well as the public sector.[1] Cohere was founded in 2019 by Aidan Gomez, Ivan Zhang, and Nick Frosst[2] and is headquartered in Toronto and San Francisco, with offices in Montreal,[3] London, and New York City.[4][5][6]

Noxoug1, Kvng would this be OK? Thanks, LivingInaCloud (talk) 10:39, 9 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@LivingInaCloud. the lead should summarize what's in the body of the article. As such it is not good practice to introduce new relevant information in the lead before first improving the body to include that information. As such the citations are typically in the body material and are often not needed in the lead. See MOS:LEAD ~Kvng (talk) 13:58, 9 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you Kvng for taking a look. The details summarized in my suggestion are included in the body of the article; they'd be new only to the lead. Specifically the satellite office in Montreal is not mentioned in the body of the article yet, as the rest of the locations aren't positioned there either (but they are in the infobox). Would it be OK to make these changes? LivingInaCloud (talk) 08:47, 10 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
If the supporting content is already in the body, the citations should be on the supporting content, not in the lead. I assume at least some of the citations you provide here are new. The first step is to get them incorporated into the article body. The infobox is not part of the article body. We may need to add a paragraph or section on satellite offices in the body. If you have a WP:COI, please refrain from making these edits yourself. Also, be aware that my availability to help with this is limited at the moment. ~Kvng (talk) 14:33, 10 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
 Partly done: Most of the citations already existed before this request with one new addition, I've added the content requested but moved the citations into the article's body. Encoded  Talk 💬 11:35, 11 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
