Cohere: Command A
Command A is a text-only model from Cohere with a 256,000-token context window and a maximum of 8,192 output tokens per response. It does not support tool use, reasoning modes, or structured output, so it is suited to straightforward text generation and comprehension tasks rather than agentic workflows or schema-constrained applications. At $2.50 per million input tokens and $10.00 per million output tokens, the pricing sits in a mid-range tier, but the benchmark picture is thin: a blended score of 10.5 across only two benchmarks leaves capability largely unproven against broader evaluation suites. Teams with high-volume, long-context summarization or document analysis needs may find the context window appealing, but buyers who require tool integration or want broader benchmark validation before committing should look elsewhere until coverage improves.
