Former OpenAI researcher launches Jev, a classification-only AI model
TypeSafe AI's Diogo Almeida releases a model that judges preset options instead of generating text, targeting speed and cost in software workflows.
What to know
- Jev abandons text generation entirely, instead scoring inputs against preset developer-defined options—a narrower but potentially faster approach than general chatbots.
- Response times (70–500 ms) and pricing ($0.042 per million input tokens) are designed to undercut existing models, but performance claims rely on internal benchmarks without independent verification.
- The model's no-hallucination guarantee applies only to output format, not factual accuracy—it cannot produce invalid category labels, but cannot verify whether the classification itself is correct.
- Use cases center on software routing and decision-making (customer service triage, refund eligibility checks) where speed and cost matter more than conversational ability.
“TypeSafe says Jev delivers answers in 70 to 500 milliseconds, many times faster than even the fastest current language models.”

TypeSafe AI releases Jev classification model
Startup TypeSafe AI, founded by former OpenAI researcher Diogo Almeida, launches Jev, a model designed to classify inputs against developer-defined options rather than generate text. The model targets speed (70–500 milliseconds response time) and cost ($0.042 per million input tokens) for use in software workflows like customer service routing.
“Instead of generating text, emails, or code, Jev is built to deliver narrow judgments and probabilities inside other programs.”
