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.
“ 1.6 “ Customer Model Output ” means the output of any query received by the Customer Model through the Baseten Products & Services. 1.7 “Documentation” means the technical materials provided by Baseten to Customer in hard copy or electronic form describing the use and operation…”

Cohere claims sole ownership of the Cohere Solution and 'all other materials provided by us hereunder' including derivative works. It is ambiguous whether AI-generated outputs are 'materials provided by' Cohere and thus owned by Cohere rather than the user.

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.

Commercial exploitation of the Cohere Solution itself is prohibited without prior written permission, which significantly restricts resale, white-labelling, or embedding scenarios.
