Cohere: Command A

Command A is the live Command lead on first-party Cohere docs, not leftover Command R. Rechecked 2026-08-18: docs.cohere.com/docs/command-a now leads the Command family, and the same docs family still lists command-a-03-2025. Leftover Command R stays a previous 35B snapshot. Do not invent a 2026 Command A dollar row unless you re-open a first-party pricing table.

Compare leftover Command R if you still had the 35B bookmark, leftover Cohere Embed v3 if you wanted the leftover embedding twin, and Claude Sonnet 5 if you wanted a current mid-tier chat model.

Key Features

• Live Command lead: First-party Command A docs are the current starting point.
• Not leftover Command R: The 35B leftover page stays a previous snapshot.
• Printed id family: command-a-03-2025 still appears in the same docs family we opened.
• No invented dollar row: Recheck Cohere pricing before you quote a token price.

Use Cases

• People who need the current Command row after leftover Command R was rewritten.
• People comparing Command A vs leftover Command R.
• People who were about to pin Command R as Cohere's current RAG default.

Limitation: We did not invent a 2026 Command A dollar row.

Pricing

First-party pages on 2026-08-18.

If a leftover blog still calls Command R the current Command default, treat this page as the correction.
