Cohere Integration in Lisburn

Integrating Cohere into Lisburn applications, where reranking is frequently the cheapest quality improvement available to an existing retrieval system. It slots in after your search and before your model — no change to the vector database, no change to the generation step — and it reorders candidates by relevance to the actual question.

Why this comes up

The problem

Retrieval returns twenty plausible passages, the answer is in the eleventh, and only the first five reach the model.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Reranking added to an existing pipeline without rebuilding what already works
  • The improvement measured against your evaluation set rather than assumed
  • Candidate count tuned — retrieve broadly, rerank, then pass a few forward
  • Latency budgeted, since reranking adds a step between search and answer
  • Embedding models compared on your corpus if you are also generating vectors
  • Multilingual handling verified where your content spans languages

Cohere Integration in Lisburn — common questions

Why does reranking help so much?
Because vector search returns things that are similar and not necessarily things that answer the question. Reranking scores candidates against the query directly, which reliably promotes the passage that actually contains the answer above ones merely on the same topic.
Does it replace our vector database?
No, it works with it. The pattern is to retrieve more candidates than you need, rerank them, and pass the best few to the model — which means you keep your existing search and add a step, rather than migrating anything.
What does it cost in latency?
A step between retrieval and generation, which is measurable and usually modest. Whether that is acceptable depends on the interaction — for a chat interface it is generally invisible, and for something latency-critical it needs budgeting like any other stage.
How many candidates should we retrieve?
More than you would without reranking. The point is to cast wider and let the reranker sort it out, so retrieving fifty and passing five forward frequently outperforms retrieving five directly — and the right numbers come from your evaluation set.
Do you work with businesses across County Antrim?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Northern Ireland, including Lisburn and the surrounding County Antrim area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Lisburn businesses do you usually work with?
Retail and light manufacturing systems for businesses serving the greater Belfast catchment. Beyond that we work across Manufacturing, Retail, Logistics, Food Production and Professional Services.
Do you cover the areas around Lisburn?
Yes — we work throughout Northern Ireland, including Belfast, Newry, Bangor. Lisburn is an urban area of roughly 120,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Antrim region rather than the city boundary alone.
