Companies change their terms without announcing it. We capture governance documents, compare each new version with the last, and publish what changed, with the source text behind it. One email a week on what we found and what we could not reach.

This agreement sets out the rules for enterprise customers using Cohere's AI services. Cohere can change the agreement, suspend your access at any time for any reason, and share your data with third parties under those third parties' own terms. If something goes wrong, the most you can recover is what you paid Cohere in the prior 12 months, and neither side can sue for lost profits or other indirect losses.
The Cohere SaaS Agreement (enterprise_terms) establishes the terms under which Cohere provides its API SaaS Services and related products to enterprise customers. It grants Cohere a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, irrevocable, and sublicensable license over Customer Data to provide the Services, while recognizing the customer's retained ownership of that data. Cohere may share API Data and Finetuning Data with third parties for service-provision and other purposes permitted under those third parties' own terms. Liability is mutually capped at fees paid in the 12 months preceding the claim, with consequential and indirect damages excluded for both parties; Beta Services are offered with no warranties and no liability. Cohere retains sole discretion to suspend or revoke access at any time for any reason and to amend the Agreement unilaterally upon notice, and Custom Models are destroyed upon termination or expiration.
As a customer under this agreement, you retain ownership of your Customer Data, but you grant Cohere a broad, irrevocable, and sublicensable license to use that data to provide the Services, and Cohere may share your API Data and Finetuning Data with third parties whose own terms govern how they use it. Cohere can suspend or revoke your access at any time for any reason, and any Custom Models built during the agreement will be permanently destroyed when it ends. Your financial recovery for any claim is limited to the fees you paid in the 12 months before the event, and if a third party claims an Output infringes their copyright, Cohere's indemnification is your only remedy for that claim. You are also required to indemnify Cohere for all losses arising directly or indirectly from your Customer Data.
