Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Generative AI continues to evolve to help enterprises build, deploy, and scale AI applications with confidence.
Today, we’re announcing the availability of additional Cohere foundation models on OCI Generative AI, expanding the range of capabilities customers can access while keeping a consistent developer experience.
The newly available models are:
- Cohere Command A Vision
- Cohere Command A Reasoning
Together, these additions reinforce OCI’s approach to generative AI: model choice, enterprise controls, and a unified API surface that simplifies how teams build AI-powered applications.
Cohere Command A Vision and Command A Reasoning, available globally
Cohere Command A Vision offers multimodal support across text and image data. This capability unlocks automating enterprise tasks with visual and multilingual data, including charts, graphs, tables, and diagrams.
This model supports use cases such as:
- Document understanding across text, charts, diagrams, and tables
- Image-aware assistants and data analysis tools
- Analyzing real-world scenes for risk detection in industrial settings and retail analytics
Cohere Command A Reasoning excels at powering advanced agentic AI applications and leveraging the most relevant tools to accomplish complex tasks.
This model powers use cases such as:
- Multilingual agents that tackle complex tasks and develop in-depth research reports
- Accurate and verifiable responses showing reasoning chains of thought and citations
- Workflow automation across industries
Available in European regions to facilitate your data residency needs
Cohere models on OCI Generative AI can be used and deployed in European OCI regions, allowing organizations to process data in-region and within their own OCI tenancy. See the current region availability of our models on OCI here. This architecture helps organizations align AI workloads with:
- GDPR requirements
- Data residency obligations
- Internal governance and emerging AI regulatory frameworks in the EU
OCI security: flexibility alongside enterprise controls
As with other models on OCI Generative AI:
- Customer prompts and outputs remain within the customer’s tenancy
- Data is not used to train foundation models
- Access can be controlled through OCI IAM and private networking
This combination of multimodality, complex reasoning, regional deployment, and enterprise controls makes Cohere’s Command A Vision and Command A Reasoning models a strong option for organizations building production agentic AI applications in regulated environments.
Tight control over data security is foundational to OCI Generative AI, but enterprise AI adoption also depends on flexibility and choice.
With this expanded model lineup, OCI Generative AI helps make it possible for organizations to:
- Experiment and iterate with different models using a consistent API surface
- Align model deployment with regional and regulatory considerations
- Build AI systems that can evolve as new models and capabilities emerge
This approach allows teams to focus on delivering business value, while OCI handles the operational complexity of running generative AI at scale.
“We were already deflecting traffic from live agents to the Oracle Digital Assistant chatbot. However, with OCI Generative AI, we transformed our customer service experience, providing a greater first-time
resolution path.”

You can access this model through the Console, API, and the CLI:
Those APIs provide a unified interface for interacting with different models, supporting text generation, conversational experiences, structured outputs, streaming responses, and—where supported—multimodal inputs. By standardizing how applications interact with models, the API helps teams switch, combine, or evolve models with minimal application changes, simplifying experimentation and long-term architecture design.
Use the Generative AI service inference API to access your custom model endpoints, or to try the out-of-the-box models to chat, generate text, summarize, and create text embeddings.
Get started today
Cohere Command A Vision and Command A Reasoning are now available through OCI Generative AI.
To get started:
