Cohere describes how its North platform can be deployed within a utility's secure perimeter, allowing the organization to use AI on sensitive data without data egress. The post outlines five questions utility leaders should ask about AI proposals and emphasizes that the utility must retain authority and accountability over AI agents.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://cohere.com/blog/ai-for-utilities-requires-capability-and-control:

> Cohere's approach to enterprise AI is to deliver the models to the data that utilities need to protect. Rather than requiring organizations to redesign sensitive workflows around a public AI service, Cohere's North platform can be deployed within the operator's secure perimeter, which can fundamentally expand where utilities are able to use AI.
