Highlights

  • Dates it: Jev announced 15 September 2026; the hosted API opened to everyone on 21 September 2026 with no waitlist.
  • Model string jev-1.13.0, also available as jev-latest and jev-preview; a closed hosted model with no released weights.
  • Up to eight questions per request; state up to 8,000 characters; 120 requests per minute per key; use Idempotency-Key on retries.
  • Pricing: $0.042 per million input tokens and free output, the same list price on OpenRouter and Vercel AI Gateway.
  • jevmodel.org offers 10,000 guest and 100,000 signed-in free input tokens; packs start at $9.90 for 15 million tokens and never expire.

Watch out

The article discloses that jevmodel.org, which it promotes, is an independent guide not affiliated with TypeSafe, and that its per-token price is higher than going direct. Latency figures are vendor claims, and the author advises pinning jev-1.13.0 once thresholds are tuned because aliases can move.
