Cohere Coral
WORKFLOW & AUTOMATION
PROMPT
Cohere takes extremely broad rights over user inputs: "YOU GRANT US A NONEXCLUSIVE, WORLDWIDE, ROYALTY-FREE, IRREVOCABLE, SUBLICENSABLE, AND FULLY PAID-UP RIGHT TO ACCESS, COLLECT, USE, PROCESS, STORE, DISCLOSE AND TRANSMIT ANY DATA, INFORMATION, CONTENT, RECORDS OR FILES...THAT YOU LOAD, SUBMIT, TRANSMIT TO OR ENTER INTO THE COHERE SOLUTION."
OUTPUT
Cohere's Terms do not explicitly address ownership of AI-generated outputs.
TRAINING
User data is used to improve and enhance the Cohere Solution. Cohere may share fine-tuning data with third parties: "COHERE WILL NOT SHARE A CUSTOM MODEL WITH ANY THIRD PARTY BUT MAY SHARE FINETUNING DATA USED TO FINETUNE OR TRAIN A CUSTOM MODEL WITH THIRD PARTIES."
COMMERCIAL

SID
WORKFLOW & AUTOMATION
PROMPT
Customer grants SID a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to access, process, host, transmit, display, and use Customer Content solely for: (a) providing, maintaining, and supporting the Service; (b) preventing or addressing service, security, or technical issues; (c) complying with applicable law or valid legal process; and (d) enforcing the Terms. Separately, any Feedback submitted by Customer is subject to a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license granted to SID for any purpose — a notably broader grant with no stated scope limitation.
OUTPUT
As between Customer and SID, Customer owns and retains all right, title, and interest in and to its Inputs and Outputs. Customer must warrant that its use of Outputs complies with applicable law and does not infringe third-party rights. SID retains full ownership of the Service, SID-1 model, model weights, software, documentation, and all related IP, including any improvements or derivative works thereof.
TRAINING
SID explicitly commits not to use Customer Content — including Inputs and Outputs — to develop, train, fine-tune, distill, or otherwise enhance any AI or machine learning models (Section 6.1 Non-Training Commitment). Usage Data (API request records, authentication events, query/response metadata, latency, token-count metrics, etc.) may be collected, retained, and used for lawful business purposes — including operating, securing, monitoring, and improving the Service — but explicitly subject to the same non-training commitment. Conversely, Customers are themselves prohibited from using Inputs, Outputs, or any Service-derived information to train, fine-tune, distill, develop, or improve any AI/ML model or competing product ('Anti-Distillation' clause).
COMMERCIAL
Customers are prohibited from reselling, sublicensing, leasing, renting, or otherwise transferring Service access to any third party, except to Authorized Users acting on the Customer's behalf. The Service is classified as 'commercial computer software' under FAR 12. Data portability rights exist upon express customer request, subject to SID's right to safeguard its commercial and industrial secrets. Disputes are subject to binding individual arbitration under AAA Commercial or Consumer Arbitration Rules. Enterprise customers operate under separate Cloud Service Agreements or Order Forms that control in the event of any conflict with the standard Terms.
