Generative AI changes the entire corporate world – and the way we work, make decisions and create added value. However, the requirements for the implementation of the AI strategies of companies are becoming increasingly complex. To introduce AI, you don’t just need powerful models; The AI models must also be reliable, scalable and applicable in practice.

We are therefore pleased to announce the expansion of our partnership with Cohere, a leading provider of a safe company AI. Together we pursue the goal of integrating the powerful and advanced generative data call models from Cohere into the SAP ecosystem in order to make agent-based AI even more effective.

These models, together with other market-leading AI models from SAP and from third-party providers in the generative AI HUB in SAP AI Core, should be available in order to provide customers with more options for developing AI-based solutions that meet their individual business requirements.

Expansion of the SAP portfolio to AI models

Trustworthiness is the be -all and end -all for SAP Business Ai. Our customers expect – and earn – AI, which guarantees data protection, fit into their operational work processes and is tailored to the context and complexity of their industries. The focus of Cohere on security, efficiency and applicability in business processes as well as our approach for corporate AI and our generative AI Hub complement each other perfectly.

Command-CoHere models are efficient, powerful language models that are designed for complex tasks and support agent -supported workflows and multilingual processes. With the help of the models “Embed” and “Rerank“Extensive searches can be carried out and data can be called up. They help customers to search and call up and access the structured and unstructured data precisely and context -related.

Cohere models are designed in such a way that they can be used in productive environments. Both the data protection requirements of companies and their limits with regard to computing power are taken into account. And since Cohere, like we puts data protection in the first place, can also be used in the most regulated industries such as finance and healthcare and the public sector.

SAP starts with Reasoning models from Cohere

As part of the partnership, the SAP is planning to offer one of the first partners to offer the new Reasoning model from Cohere-a highly efficient model that was developed for agent-based applications.

Here we see enormous potential. So that AI agents can work together, not only the number of agents is crucial, but also their ability to draw logical conclusions-one aspect that is part of the SAP AI strategy. Next generation AI agents can help employees configure a system in the consultation, or support support in solving cross-system problems. To do this, however, you need models that draw logical conclusions and plan and act confidently. And that is exactly what the Cohere Reasoning models can do.

“We are pleased to be able to work with the SAP and to provide your customers with the latest models and solutions from Cohere where security has a top priority,” said Martin Kon, President and Coo from Cohere. “We are particularly pleased that SAP will be one of the first partners who will offer our new Reasoning model. Both SAP and Cohere pursue the goal of producing practical AI innovations. Our cooperation is an important milestone on our way to opening up new opportunities to increase efficiency and company growth.”

Practical application of AI assistants in numerous industries

The partnership will enable SAP customers to master the following urgent business challenges in numerous industries using the models from Cohere:

• Automation of agent -based tasks: Use of AI assistants to carry out tasks in all tools and systems of a company
• Multilingual applications for accessing data: Calling, classifying and summarizing data from global guidelines, compliance documents or internal knowledge databases
• Safe document analysis: Reading long, structured, multimodal files such as financial information, M&A reports, technical manuals or imaging procedures in medicine
• Context -related search: Improvement of search accuracy in unstructured content such as emails, tables or contracts

Customers will also be able to easily access these models, test them and scale them within the generative AI Hub from SAP.

More selection options for AI functions

With our partnership with Cohere, we complement a growing spectrum of AI functions that are generally accessible, safe and immediately usable. Customers can choose the right model for their application and rely on the fact that this model meets the SAP standards in terms of quality, reliability and compliance.

Together, SAP and Cohere enable companies to use generative AI with confidence-regardless of whether they develop expert AI assistants, automate processes or design new intelligent services for users.
