Cohere Terms of Use

This document governs user access to and use of the Cohere website (www.cohere.ai), the Cohere mobile application, the Cohere API and related documentation, and all content, products, and services provided by Cohere, on the basis of a clickwrap or browse-wrap contractual agreement. The terms assert Cohere's right to modify or discontinue services, establish user obligations regarding permitted use of the API and platform, and address intellectual property ownership of Cohere's models, outputs, and platform content. The document's scope explicitly covers the proprietary API and any related documentation, which is operationally significant for enterprise and developer users who build applications on top of Cohere's models, as API terms typically carry additional data handling and licensing obligations that may differ from consumer-facing terms. The terms engage GDPR, CCPA, and potentially the EU AI Act given Cohere's provision of large language model API services; applicability of specific frameworks depends on user jurisdiction, the nature of data processed through the API, and whether enterprise data processing agreements supplement these terms. Compliance teams should note that AI model API terms increasingly intersect with emerging AI-specific regulations, and the adequacy of these terms as a standalone governance instrument may depend on whether a separate Data Processing Agreement or enterprise agreement is in place.
