Available · Language

Command R7B is an open-weights language model with 7 billion parameters that Cohere presents as the final model of its R series, offered on the Cohere API and as a research release on Hugging Face. Like the other R series models it has a 128K-token context window and targets retrieval-augmented generation with citations, tool use and agents. [1] [2] [3] Primary source
