Cohere Rerank API
The Cohere Rerank API takes a query and a list of text documents and returns them ordered by relevance with assigned relevance scores. It is commonly used as a second-stage ranker in retrieval-augmented generation pipelines to improve the quality of search results before passing them to a language model. The API supports multilingual reranking and can significantly improve the precision of search and retrieval systems.
