About Cohere

AIWatch Data: Cohere's reported uptime is 99.85%. Based on AIWatch data from the last 30 days, it experienced 1 incident with an average recovery time of 4h 23m.

Cohere API provides enterprise-grade language models specializing in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), reranking, and multilingual embeddings. Cohere is widely used in enterprise search and knowledge applications.

AIWatch Insight: Cohere reports incidents per component (Generate, Embed, Rerank, Classify), so AIWatch shows aggregated overall status. Cohere has strong uptime historically — most incidents are short, model-specific issues rather than full API outages.

When Cohere API is down, applications relying on Generate, Embed, or Rerank endpoints will fail. Enterprise search and RAG applications built on Cohere will not return results.

This page provides real-time status, uptime history, and recent incident details — updated every 5 minutes by AIWatch.
