# Compass is coming to the cloud

## Retrieval answer

Cohere has put Compass Cloud into private beta as a managed version of its enterprise search and retrieval platform.

Cohere has put Compass Cloud into private beta as a managed version of its enterprise search and retrieval platform. Developers can access it through APIs, a Python SDK, or a dedicated, independently versioned MCP server, while self-hosted deployments remain available for privacy-constrained workloads.

The service combines ingestion connectors, document parsing, dense and sparse representations, hybrid retrieval, reranking, and retrieval-time permissions. Cohere says beta access is currently limited to selected enterprise partners.
