What it is definition
Downloads training data for the large language models behind Cohere's enterprise AI products.
cohere-training-data-crawler is operated by Cohere and classified here as model training. These agents collect text and images that may end up in a training corpus. Disallowing one withholds new content from the next model. It does not withdraw anything collected before the disallow, and it does not remove the site from any answer engine.
Disallowing cohere-training-data-crawler withholds content crawled from that point on from Cohere's training data. It does not withdraw pages collected in earlier crawls, it does not reach copies already sitting in third-party datasets, and it does not remove the site from any answer surface.

Common questions answered
Does blocking cohere-training-data-crawler remove me from Cohere's models?
No, not by itself. cohere-training-data-crawler collects content for training, not for the index that answers questions. Cohere's answer surfaces are governed separately by cohere-ai, which stays allowed unless you disallow it too. Content collected before the disallow is not withdrawn.
How do I verify cohere-training-data-crawler requests are genuine?
Cohere publishes neither reverse DNS names nor address ranges for cohere-training-data-crawler, so a request carrying this user agent cannot be authenticated. The string is trivially spoofed and is routinely reused by unrelated scrapers. Treat it as a hint, rate-limit by source address, and do not grant it access you would not grant an anonymous client.
