Overview

  • North now runs on on-premise infrastructure, hybrid clouds, virtual private clouds and air-gapped environments so customer data never leaves their firewalls.
  • Powered by Cohere’s Command large language models and Compass search technology, North autonomously handles tasks like meeting summaries, marketing copy and customer support inquiries.
  • Built-in security features include granular access controls, agent autonomy policies, continuous red-teaming and third-party testing to meet GDPR, SOC-2 and ISO 27001 standards.
  • Cohere has expanded beyond initial pilots with RBC, Bell, Dell, LG, STC Group, Ensemble Health Partners and Palantir to serve enterprises of all sizes.
  • The company’s per-user fee is tied to the scope of North’s capabilities rather than usage tokens, simplifying cost predictability for clients.
