Cohere releases North Mini Code — open-source 30B (3B active) agentic coding MoE model

Cohere has open-sourced North Mini Code, a mixture-of-experts agentic coding model sized at 30 billion parameters with 3 billion active, released under an Apache 2.0 license. The model — available on Hugging Face, OpenRouter, and Cohere's Model Vault in bf16, fp8 and w4a16 formats and compatible with OpenCode — is optimized for agentic developer workflows and reports a 33.4 score on the Artificial Analysis Coding Index, higher throughput (up to 2.8x) and ~30% better inter-token latency versus Devstral Small 2 in Cohere's tests.

Cohere argues smaller, task‑optimized language models can outperform at lower cost

Cohere published a post promoting small language models (SLMs) for enterprise use, arguing they cut compute, data and energy needs while enabling local deployment and lower costs. The post highlights Cohere models — Command R7B, the Tiny Aya family (3.35B) and North Mini Code (30B MoE with 3B active) — and cites benchmark claims that North Mini Code and Tiny Aya outperform several larger competitors on coding and multilingual translation benchmarks respectively.
