Cohere Embedding

Cohere's embedding model arranges files, pleadings and correspondence for search and is expressly multilingual: a German question also finds the English or French passage. Like every embedding model it prepares search, not assessment. Procurement runs via Amazon Bedrock - region-bound in Ireland or through the European inference profile, without operator access and without storage in the delivered state. For section 203 of the German Criminal Code that is not enough: no publicly available, signable document for the confidentiality undertaking is evidenced for this route, so the chain stays open. The target list of the specific profile also has to be checked, as it includes non-EU locations via Zurich and London.

Usable, but one piece is still open

You can work with it - but part of the safeguard is open: either the provider does not commit to confidentiality itself, or it depends on an agreement you still have to conclude. Which of the two applies to which route is set out in the full matrix.

What it is good for

  • Evidenced both region-bound and through the European inference profile - two ways to bind to the EU
  • No operator access and no storage in the delivered state
  • Multilingual embedding for mixed-language file corpora

Where it stops

  • The target list of the eu inference profile includes non-EU states via Zurich and London - the check belongs to the specific profile, not to the model
  • A worldwide profile exists for this model as well; without an organisational policy the EU location is a per-call decision
  • Embedding is a side role in the search pipeline, not a substitute for a language model

Status through us

The same model, procured differently, is a different legal position. The status above refers to procurement through us; processing takes place in a third country.

Which route carries it, with which instrument and under which condition, we set out in full to the firm before it commissions us - section 203(4) requires that the chain can be checked, not that it is published. The full matrix, with the sources behind every route, can be requested in the German catalogue after confirming your e-mail address, and we go through it in the conversation.

Is Cohere Embedding the right fit?
