# Meet Cohere Parse

> This announcement covers the release of Cohere Parse, Cohere's document parsing model for visual understanding and document intelligence workflows.

Today we are releasing Cohere [Parse](/docs/parse).

Parse (model ID: `parse-v5.0`) turns complex documents into clean, structured Markdown ready for downstream AI workflows. The 2.3B-parameter multimodal model extracts text in reading order, tables, lists, forms, images and captions, page boundaries, and visual element locations.

Outputs include Markdown/HTML content, HTML-formatted tables, bounding boxes, and image descriptions — preserving both document structure and layout for easier rendering and processing.

Key specs: 8K context window · \~4.6GB model size · Markdown output
