If you have been wiring an LLM into every classification and routing decision in your product, there is now a reason to reconsider the pattern. A new model called JEV, from a company named Typesafe, is built to answer narrow questions with probabilities rather than prose. The practical consequence is that a check you could previously afford to run only on selected cases, or at the end of a task, becomes cheap and fast enough to run on every incoming request, after every draft, across every candidate document. That changes the economics of self-checking, ticket routing, and agent orchestration, which is where a lot of real automation quietly succeeds or fails.
