What is the cheapest Cohere model?

Command R7B (12-2024) is the lowest blended-price option among tracked active non-embedding models, or among all models if only embeddings are listed: $0.04 input and $0.15 output per million tokens ($0.07 blended). Blended pricing uses 75% input and 25% output for generation models; your cheapest option may differ with your workload.

Which Cohere model has the highest AA Intelligence score?

Command A+ has the highest listed Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index score among tracked active Cohere models: 13.1. This is one evaluation, not a guarantee of the best result for every task. Models without measured results are not ranked as zero.

How do I calculate monthly Cohere API costs?

Multiply input tokens in millions by the input rate and add output tokens in millions multiplied by the output rate. For example, 20 million input and 5 million output tokens on Command R7B (12-2024) cost an estimated $1.50 at the listed rates. This excludes tool charges, cache-specific charges, taxes and any endpoint-specific adjustments.

Which Cohere model has the largest context window?

Command A has a listed context window of 256K tokens, the largest among tracked active Cohere models. Context capacity and maximum response length are separate limits; verify both on the model page and in the endpoint documentation.

What is the latest Cohere model in the catalog?

Command A+ has the most recent listed release date among tracked active Cohere models: 2026-09-22. Models without a usable release date are excluded from this comparison. Catalog release dates do not guarantee immediate API availability.

Do Cohere models support image inputs?

1 tracked active models list image inputs, including Command A+. Accepting images does not mean a model generates images; check each model's separate input and output formats and endpoint limits.

Can prompt caching lower Cohere API costs?

1 tracked active models have a listed cached-input rate, including Command A+. Savings depend on eligible repeated input and the endpoint's cache rules, duration and any write charges.

Do Cohere models support tool calling?

3 tracked active models list tool-calling capabilities, including Command A+, Command R (08-2024), Command R+ (08-2024). Verify the exact tool schema and availability with your API endpoint before integrating.

How should I compare Cohere benchmark scores and prices?

Compare scores within the same evaluation: Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, DesignArena Elo, general Arena Elo and MMLU-Pro use different tasks and scales. Missing results are not zeroes. Pair a relevant measured benchmark with input/output pricing and tests of your own workload; the cheapest or highest-scoring model is not automatically the best fit.

Are retired Cohere models included in the price list?

The price list shows active models by default. Turn on Show retired models to include retired catalog entries, where available. A retained model page preserves reference information, not a promise that its API is still available.

Is Cohere an AI lab or an inference host?

Cohere is categorized as an AI lab in this catalog. Individual model pages list available API hosts separately; model creator and API host are different roles.
