Production keys do not cover the four newest Command models, whose limits are set by sales, and the SaaS agreement lets Cohere share API data with third parties.\n\n**SambaCloud.** Per-token prices and the model list are readable without a key at `/v1/models`, and a free tier needs no card. Production models get two to three weeks' notice before removal, 13 model ids left between March and June 2026, and the docs disagree with the live catalogue on MiniMax-M2.7.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Cohere Chat API (Command models)\n\n1. Call `POST https://api.cohere.com/v2/chat` with `Authorization: bearer \u003ckey\u003e`. `model` and `messages` are the only required fields\n2. Use `command-a-03-2025`, `command-r-08-2024`, `command-r-plus-08-2024` or `command-r7b-12-2024` for production traffic. Newer variants stay at trial limits on a production key\n3. Keep a trial key under 20 chat requests a minute and 1,000 calls a month, and do not use it for commercial work\n4. Set `response_format` with a `json_schema` for structured output, and tell the model to produce JSON when using `json_object` without a schema\n5. Ask the account Owner to turn off training under Data Controls in the dashboard before sending confidential prompts\n\n### SambaCloud\n\n1. Call `GET https://api.sambanova.ai/v1/models` at start-up and use only ids it returns. The docs name models the endpoint no longer lists\n2. Read `x-ratelimit-remaining-requests` and `x-ratelimit-remaining-requests-day` on every response. The free tier allows 20 requests a day per model\n3. Treat 429 `queue_full` and 503 `maintenance` as retryable after a delay, and 410 `model_deprecated` as a signal to change model\n4. Validate JSON output yourself. Schema enforcement is best effort and `strict: true` changes nothing\n5. Check `max_completion_tokens` per model. DeepSeek-V3.1 caps output at 7,168 tokens and Llama 3.3 70B at 3,072\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Cohere Chat API (Command models) or SambaCloud?\n\nSambaCloud scores 66.4 (B) on agent readiness against Cohere Chat API (Command models)'s 64.7 (B), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories. Cohere Chat API (Command models) leads on agent ergonomics and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Do Cohere Chat API (Command models) and SambaCloud need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Cohere Chat API (Command models) and SambaCloud without installing anything?\n\nYes. Cohere Chat API (Command models) has a hosted endpoint at https://api.cohere.com/v2/chat and SambaCloud at https://api.sambanova.ai/v1.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cohere-chat-vs-sambanova.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cohere-chat-vs-sambanova.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"cohere-chat\", \"b\": \"sambanova\"}`.
