Using Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite with Jev
Jev is TypeSafe AI's System One model. It reads each request first and decides which model in your pool answers, with a calibrated confidence on that call. Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite does the answering when Jev sends it work, or when you name it yourself. Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite falls in the llm11-fast band, and the labs and limits it meets make it eligible for that pack. Packs keep a spread of eight models per band, and it is not one of the eight today, so it is only picked when you name it in a custom pool.
Jev is new, so we have not published results for Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite with and without it, and this page does not invent any. Every response comes with a receipt that names the model that answered and what it cost against your most expensive model, so you can measure the pairing on your own traffic.
What a request costs
List price arithmetic, the same sum a receipt does. llm11 adds nothing per request; the only fee is on buying credits.
