Cohere has released Rerank 5, a reranking model sold in Pro and Fast tiers with a 32K context window. It adds Context Focus passage extraction and calibrated relevance scores, and the Pro tier costs $0.05 per 1M tokens.

Cohere's Rerank 5 comes in two tiers, Pro and Fast, and both are built around a 32K context window. The release adds Context Focus, which extracts passages from longer inputs, and calibrated relevance scores.

According to the announcement, Pro scores 82.2 on BRIGHT, a retrieval benchmark. Pro is priced at $0.05 per 1M tokens. The source does not give pricing for the Fast tier.

## Why it matters if you build agents

Developers who rerank results for search-driven agents can compare Pro against their current reranker on both cost and benchmark quality.

The 32K window and passage extraction may matter for agents that rerank long documents, since fewer tokens may need to reach the model. Teams should check the Fast tier's pricing and scores directly before choosing a tier.
