Dex

An open-source, Jev-compatible System One model: Dex answers choice, score and yes/no questions over text in a single forward pass from an Ettin-1B encoder, and speaks the same /v1/systemone shape as Jev.

Highlights

  • Non-autoregressive: one forward pass produces typed answers, never generated text, so there is nothing to parse and nothing to hallucinate.
  • Built on Ettin-1B, a bidirectional encoder (1.1B parameters, 784M fine-tuned) with a decision head trained from scratch against strictly proper scoring rules.
  • Speaks the same POST /v1/systemone request and response shape as Jev; point an existing client at http://127.0.0.1:18766/v1/systemone and drop the key.
  • Scored 71.4% against human labels across 5,327 questions, closing about 40% of the gap between stock Laya at 64.0% and the JEV API at 81.8%.
  • Runs on an 8 GB card: 2.4 GB of weights in bfloat16, 18 ms for one short-text question versus 886 ms for the JEV API on the same machine.

Quickstart

bash
git clone https://github.com/CanadaOrNaw/dex && cd dex
python -m venv .venv && . .venv/bin/activate && pip install -r requirements.txt
huggingface-cli download CanadaOrNaw/dex-1b --local-dir model
python server/dex_server.py 18766

Watch out

Grounded in the truncated repository README and GitHub metadata reviewed on 2026-10-15; the benchmark table is the author's own measurement on one RTX 3070 Ti scored against human labels, the README stops inside the Decision Index section, and differences from Jev include no credits_remaining_usd field and one request at a time.
