The Cohere Toolkit is an open-source resource designed to accelerate the development of AI applications by providing a repository of production-ready applications that can be deployed across various cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, and the Cohere platform. It allows developers to build applications quickly by leveraging Cohere's Command, Embed, and Rerank models, while ensuring they meet organizational security standards and can be connected to custom data sources. The toolkit includes a knowledge assistant application, which enhances productivity by providing quick access to information and facilitating seamless team collaboration through conversational AI. This application is customizable, allowing developers to integrate over 100 pre-built connectors and tools to tailor responses and actions. The toolkit's modular components, including user interfaces and retrieval systems, enable developers to create scalable applications efficiently. Cohere encourages contributions to the toolkit's development and offers workshops to help developers build robust AI applications.
