Cohere Unveils Command A+

Cohere has released Command A+. As their first MoE model, they explained that while top-tier performance still needs further refinement, it is very fast and highly responsive compared to its peers.

The core focus is real-world usability.

• It was designed with efficiency as the priority, applying strong quantization so it runs well even on 1-2 GPUs.
• It's tailored so that small teams and developers can actually build agentic-level workloads for their own platforms.
• The deployment terms are Apache 2.0, allowing for relatively broad usage.

Cohere stated that while they are focused on enterprise customers, feedback from the open-source community has a significant influence on the direction of their products and models. More details can be found in Cohere's official blog post.
