The license grant over user inputs is irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, and sublicensable—meaning Cohere retains these rights even if the user terminates their account. The scope is extremely broad.
“ We appreciate feedback, including ideas and suggestions for improvement or rating an Output in response to an Input (“ Feedback ”). If you rate an Output in response to an Input—for example, by using the thumbs up/thumbs down icon—we will store the related conversation as part o…”
“ The Cohere Solution and all materials provided by us hereunder are made available or licensed and not “sold” to you. ”
“Utilization of inputs and outputs to train an AI model (e.g., “model scraping” or “model distillation”) without prior authorization from Anthropic”
This clause prohibits users from using inputs/outputs to train AI models without Anthropic's prior authorization, but does not address whether Anthropic itself may use user inputs/outputs for training — creating an asymmetric obligation.
“Section 2.3 (Research and Model Improvement): Analyzing usage patterns and using Trial or Research User Inputs/Outputs to improve the performance and safety of our AI models. Content you submit to the Cohere Products, and outputs generated by the Cohere Products. Legitimate…”
Cohere uses Trial and Research user inputs and outputs for model training/improvement under 'legitimate interests' rather than consent, giving users limited ability to object. Paid/Enterprise users may have different treatment but this is not clarified here.
“Human-in-the-loop: When using our products or services to provide advice, recommendations, or in subjective decision-making directly affecting individuals or consumers , a qualified professional in that field must review the content or decision prior to dissemination or finalizat…”
For high-risk use cases (legal, healthcare, finance, employment, etc.), a qualified professional must review AI outputs before they reach end users. This imposes significant operational cost and legal responsibility on the operator, who bears full accountability for accuracy and appropriateness.
“you further represent and warrant to and covenant with Cohere that you will not (and will not attempt to) directly or indirectly: disable, overly burden, impair, or otherwise interfere with servers or networks connected to the Cohere Solution (e.g., a denial of service att…”
Commercial exploitation of the Cohere Solution itself is prohibited without prior written permission, which significantly restricts resale, white-labelling, or embedding scenarios.
