The Jev ecosystem
Projects built on or around Jev, TypeSafe AI's typed-decision model announced 2026-09-15, and the decision models and tools that speak its format.
What they agree on
- How is the main thing licensed? permissive open source (MIT/Apache/BSD) (86% of 22)
- Do you need an account to use it? no account (86% of 22)
- Who is it for? developers (95% of 22)
- Which shared standard or format does it mainly build on? TypeSafe's System One API (state + typed questions, /v1/systemone) (82% of 22)
- Does it train on Jev's outputs? (TypeSafe's customer agreement forbids using output to distill or build competing models.) it doesn't train models (70% of 20)
What they argue about
Is it actively maintained?
How is it mainly sustained?
Can it run entirely on your own device or infrastructure, without the maker's servers?
Which models answer its questions? Pick the first that applies.
What is the main thing it ships?
Which question types does it handle?

Where do the decisions run by default?
Can you use it without a TypeSafe account?
Are its answers typed values rather than generated text? (identity question)
Does it publish head-to-head numbers against Jev?

The poll
Every project above was answered against these questions. Core questions are shared by all communities; the rest are this community's own.
- Is it actively maintained? core
active · active, but changed direction (pivot, fork, or rename) · maintenance or slowing · dormant, sunsetting, or archived - How is the main thing licensed? core
permissive open source (MIT/Apache/BSD) · copyleft or source-available with restrictions · open parts around a closed core · proprietary or closed source - How is it mainly sustained? core
individual side project, no revenue · individual with revenue (paid app, tier, ads, or donations) · community, foundation, or research · company with a paid product, tier, or ads · company or startup with a free product (no revenue yet) · big company side project - Can it run entirely on your own device or infrastructure, without the maker's servers? core
yes · yes, but it calls a third-party service you choose (your own API key or account) · partly (some features need the maker's servers) · no, it needs the maker's servers · not applicable - Do you need an account to use it? core
no account · optional account · account required - Who is it for? core
developers · non-developers · both - Is there public evidence it's built with AI coding agents? core
yes, the repo shows it (agent instruction files or agent co-authored commits) · yes, the maker says so · no public evidence - Which shared standard or format does it mainly build on? core
TypeSafe's System One API (state + typed questions, /v1/systemone) · OpenAI's Decisions API (/v1/decisions) · OpenRouter's decision-model API · none of these (its own format or interface) · not applicable - Which models answer its questions? Pick the first that applies. approach
none: it measures, compares, or catalogs Jev-style systems · only TypeSafe's Jev (direct or through a reseller) · Jev or other models, your choice · other models, not Jev (open, local, or LLMs) - What is the main thing it ships? approach
model weights · a runtime, server, proxy, or desktop app for running models · a library, CLI, or SDK for calling models · a benchmark or directory - Which question types does it handle? approach
Jev's three: noul, choice, score · Jev's three plus extra types (number, excerpt, relation, box, rank...) · a subset or a different set - Does it check whether its probabilities can be trusted? Pick the first that applies. value
yes, it publishes calibration metrics (ECE, Brier, or similar) · it calibrates or sets thresholds against your own labelled examples · no, it passes probabilities through without measuring them · probabilities are not central to it - Where do the decisions run by default? approach
on your own hardware (CPU, Mac, or GPU) · a hosted API · no default: you choose a local or hosted backend · not applicable (benchmark or directory) - Does it train on Jev's outputs? (TypeSafe's customer agreement forbids using output to distill or build competing models.) value
yes, it trains on Jev's outputs · it trains models, but not on Jev's outputs · it doesn't train models - Can you use it without a TypeSafe account? value
yes, no TypeSafe account involved · yes, through a gateway or another provider · no, a TypeSafe API key is required - Are its answers typed values rather than generated text? (identity question) value
yes, typed answers only · typed answers, but generated text is part of the pipeline · not applicable (benchmark or directory) - Does it publish head-to-head numbers against Jev? value
yes, head-to-head numbers against Jev · benchmarks, but not against Jev · no published benchmark numbers
