Cohere Command A+
Last updated: September 15, 2026
Cohere Command A+ completed 9 of 55 private-markets finance tasks (16.4%) at $1.31 per task and 150 seconds each, ranking #17 of 17 models tested — strongest on metric lookups, weakest on multi-step requests.
Tested on 55 tasks across seven kinds of financial work — reading documents, looking up figures, building statements, finding and fixing errors, assembling dashboards, drawing charts, and multi-step requests. It passed 5 of 12 on metric lookups and 0 of 6 on multi-step requests. Run-to-run noise is about ±1.8 tasks, so gaps of two tasks or fewer are ties.

Category Breakdown
Cohere Command A+ against the average of every engine tested, category by category. The gap between the two bars is the only thing worth reading here — a category where the whole field struggles is a property of the tasks, not of the engine.

Every column is measured within that category. The ingest harness is a separate suite of longer, heavier workflows — several times the tool calls of an analysis task — so its cost and latency are not comparable with the six rows below it.
Where it fell short
The 41 tasks Cohere Command A+ did not pass, of 50 graded individually. A benchmark that publishes only totals has to be taken on trust; these are the specific misses behind this model's score.

A fraction means the task was run more than once and the runs disagreed. A number after a failure is the partial credit awarded. Five of the 55 tasks in the headline total are not broken out individually in the published results.
