Open infrastructure Β· System 1 thinking models

Think fast.
Build open.

SimpleJev builds open infrastructure for System 1 thinking models, and does research on top of it. Models that read the situation and choose in a single step, with probabilities you can act on.

Not every decision needs a long chain of thought

Large models reason step by step, which is slow and costly. Many decisions in agents, robots and software are fast and intuitive instead: route this ticket, pick this tool, take this action. A System 1 model sees the state and the options, then answers in one forward pass.

  1. S1

    Fast, calibrated choices

    Return a choice with probabilities, so your application can act or escalate to human review.

  2. S2

    Work alongside LLMs

    Let the LLM plan and recover; let Jev pick among the actions it proposes.

Our first release

JevAny

Project page

Infrastructure for training and deploying your own Jev model from open-source LLMs and VLMs.

Built with researchers from UIUC, Meta AI, MBZUAI and other institutions. We used JevAny to train and release five models on more than 2.18 million decisions. We hope it helps researchers and engineers train and deploy open Jev models faster, and speeds up research in this area.

  1. 01

    Data

    Turn raw logs into labelled decisions: state, question, options.

  2. 02

    Train

    Adapt any of 26 supported LLM and VLM backbones with LoRA.

  3. 03

    Evaluate

    Measure accuracy and calibration (NLL, Brier, ECE) on JevBench and Transfer.

  4. 04

    Deploy

    Serve a checkpoint behind one API, from Python or HTTP.

JevAny-Qwen3.8-27B beats Jev 1.13.0 on both controlled evaluations. At matched scale, our 4B and 27B releases also beat Kev, the most popular open Jev variant.
