About Command R7B (12-2024)

Command R is Cohere's efficient RAG-optimized model, delivering strong retrieval-augmented generation capability at accessible pricing. With 35 billion parameters, it offers excellent performance on grounded generation tasks while being more cost-effective than Command R+. The model excels at synthesizing information from provided documents, producing accurate responses with proper citations. Command R features a 128K context window and supports Cohere's RAG infrastructure including document ingestion and retrieval. It's particularly valuable for high-volume enterprise applications where RAG capability matters but flagship pricing isn't justified for every request. The model supports function calling and tool use, enabling sophisticated AI workflows. Command R integrates with Cohere's embedding models for complete retrieval pipelines. For organizations building production RAG systems at scale, Command R provides the specialized capability needed for accurate, grounded AI responses without premium costs. It serves as the workhorse model for many enterprise knowledge management and customer support deployments.
