Verdicts

Cohere North

North has a public OpenAPI 3.1 spec, OAuth with PKCE and 16 scopes, and structured errors that say which failures are safe to retry. Access is the main limitation. Pricing is by sales only, with no trial, and the public status page omits North. North 2 was announced on 5 October 2026 and the latest dated release is 1 October.

Procore AI Go

Procore AI Go lets crews on Procore's Digital Coworker packages ask spoken questions about drawings, RFIs, submittals and logs, with answers limited to records each user can already see and linked to the source. It is a read-only iOS beta through TestFlight, and no API or MCP tool reaches it, so an outside agent can't use it.

Before you call either

Cohere North

  1. Get the North host from your admin and call https://<host>/api. Cohere-hosted examples use north.cohere.com
  2. Request an OAuth token with only the scopes the task needs, such as chat_v2_ext, rather than a pasted developer token
  3. Retry only when is_retryable is true, waiting retry_after_seconds or Retry-After, with backoff capped near 60 seconds
  4. Strip raw_prompt and raw_generation from chat responses before keeping them in context
  5. Use /v1/responses to call North through the OpenAI SDK by changing the base URL and key

Procore AI Go

  1. Don't plan to call Procore AI Go. It's a voice app for people on an iPhone, with no programmatic interface
  2. For Procore project data, use Procore's REST API under the customer's OAuth app instead
  3. Expect each question asked in the app to use the company's Procore Credits, unless it's on the flat-fee Starter Pack
  4. Ask the Procore Company Administrator to join the programme in Procore Explore if a crew needs the app
