## Cohere Unveils Command A Reasoning LLM for Enterprise AI
Canadian AI startup Cohere, valued at $6.8 billion, has launched **Command A Reasoning**, a new large language model (LLM) specifically engineered for enterprise applications. Developed with a team including former co-author of the seminal Transformer paper, Aidan Gomez, the model aims to deliver powerful, secure, and easily deployable generative AI solutions for businesses facing complex operational needs.
**Designed for Business Scalability and Functionality**
Command A Reasoning distinguishes itself through its focus on practical enterprise use cases. Key features include exceptional flexibility and reasoning capabilities, alongside support for 23 languages including English, French, Spanish, Japanese, and Arabic. Notably, the model’s tool integration capabilities allow connection to APIs, databases, and external systems, while seamless integration with Cohere’s North platform enables on-premises deployment of AI agents and automations, granting organizations full data control. It also addresses common challenges in AI scaling through token budget control, optimizing for speed and cost-efficiency.
**Performance and Adoption**
Early benchmarks position Command A Reasoning as outperforming competitors such as DeepSeek-R1 0528, gpt-oss-120b, and Mistral Magistral Medium on enterprise reasoning and multilingual tasks. Built-in safety protocols balance caution with the prevention of harmful content, ensuring suitability for regulated industries. SAP SE is among the early adopters, integrating Command A Reasoning to enhance its own generative AI capabilities.
**Access and Licensing**
The model’s open weights are accessible on Hugging Face under a CC-BY-NC license for research use.
