Cohere builds enterprise-grade large language models and AI agents, focused on secure, private, and sovereign deployments that can run inside a customer's own cloud or on-premises rather than only via public API. Its product line spans the Command generative models, embedding and reranking models for RAG, and the North agent platform.

Founders: Aidan Gomez, Nick Frosst, Ivan Zhang

Is Cohere a good buy at this price?

Secondary Flow does not make buy or sell recommendations. What it does is lay out the evidence so you can reach your own view.

Cohere scores 100/100 on Secondary Flow's composite model, which weighs founder and investor quality, sector momentum, valuation against public comparables, and secondary-market pricing. Its implied valuation sits 18.1% above the level its public comparables would imply. The secondary mark is 27.4% below the last primary round, so a buyer today is paying less than the price the last institutional investors paid. Secondary-market demand reads 72/100 (hot).

See the methodology for how each factor is weighted and how the model is backtested against realised outcomes.

How can I buy or sell Cohere shares?

Secondary Flow is a research tool, not a broker-dealer or a marketplace, so it does not execute transactions in Cohere or any other private company. Private-company shares typically change hands through a company-approved tender offer, a direct transfer subject to the company's right of first refusal, or a regulated secondary marketplace, and most transfers require issuer consent. Secondary Flow tracks the resulting prices.
