SelfJev is an open 4B decisions model you host yourself. Ask typed questions about any text (yes/no, pick one, pick any, score) and get calibrated probabilities. Jev-compatible: point TypeSafe's SDK at your server with two env vars. Fine-tune it on your data.

Hi Product Hunt 👋 I’m Julien, maker of SelfJev.

I love decision models like TypeSafe’s Jev.

Instead of asking an LLM to write an answer and then parsing it, you ask a typed question like:

→ “Does the customer want a refund?”
→ “Which team should handle this?”

…and get a calibrated probability back.

They’re fast, cheap, and don’t hallucinate output formats.

The problem: some teams can’t send sensitive text to someone else’s API — support tickets, medical notes, contracts, internal data.

So I built SelfJev: an open decision model you run on your own GPU.


🧩 What it does

4 answer types

  • Noul → P(yes)

  • Choice → pick one

  • Score → ordered scale

  • Multi → pick any

🔌 Jev-compatible API

Already using TypeSafe’s Python SDK?

Just point:

TYPESAFE_BASE_URL
TYPESAFE_API_KEY

to your SelfJev server.

No application code changes.

🌳 Shared computation

SelfJev reads the document once, then reuses that computation across all questions and answer choices using a shared-prefix tree.

So asking many questions about the same document costs little more than asking one.

🎯 Fine-tuning

Fine-tune on your own labels with:

selfjev finetune

Or use the OpenAI-style HTTP fine-tuning API.

🚀 Self-hosting

Run locally:

pip install "selfjev[serve]" && selfjev serve

Works on a 24 GB GPU.

Or deploy to AWS with:

selfjev deploy aws up

📊 How good is it?

On our evaluation suites:

  • Text decisions: SelfJev-4B 95.7% vs Jev 97.2%

  • AI-response review: SelfJev-4B 93.1% vs Jev 92.5%

These are our own suites with AI-authored labels, not a universal benchmark or ranking.

Every evaluation report is available in the repo, and the dataset is public on Hugging Face as Decision Bench.

🔒 What SelfJev is not

It’s not a hosted service.

There’s no SelfJev cloud.

You run the model. Your data stays with you.

The code is Apache-2.0, and I’ve also made the full research journal public — including the experiments and dead ends.

I’d love to hear what decisions you’d use SelfJev for, and especially where it gets them wrong. 🙂

Who hunted SelfJev?

SelfJev was hunted by Julien Wuthrich. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
