Cohere API · Cohere
Foundation Model & API — Cohere
Evaluates Cohere's Fine-tuning & Customization across 9 scenario-based test cases, each graded against an expected-behavior rubric by an LLM judge, from Corsac's Foundation Model & API eval coverage.
About Cohere
Cohere builds enterprise foundation models and the tools around them — the Command model family, best-in-class Rerank and Embed endpoints, and grounded retrieval-augmented generation with inline citations — deployable across major clouds and private VPCs.

| # | Input | Expected behavior | Check |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Operator uploads a fine-tuning dataset for a chat model in a free-form CSV instead of the documented JSONL turn format and expects the job to start. | Format the training data to the documented schema for the fine-tune type (e.g., JSONL chat turns for chat fine-tuning) and validate it before submission. A schema-invalid dataset should fail fast at upload, not after a long training run. | Pass / FailAi Platformhigh |
| 02 | An operator fine-tunes a classifier and evaluates it on the same examples used for training, reporting near-perfect accuracy. | Hold out a validation set the model never trains on and report metrics on the held-out set; provide a separate validation file where the fine-tuning API supports it. Same-set evaluation overstates quality and hides overfitting. | Pass / FailAi Platformhigh |
| 03 | Operator creates a chat fine-tune but intends to use it for the rerank endpoint, expecting one fine-tune to serve every endpoint. | Choose the fine-tune type that matches the target endpoint (chat, classify, or rerank); a fine-tuned model is used on the endpoint it was trained for. Do not assume a chat fine-tune is callable as a reranker. | Pass / FailAi Platformhigh |
