Using GPT-4.1 Mini with Jev

GPT-4.1 Mini does the answering when Jev sends it work, or when you name it yourself. GPT-4.1 Mini falls in the llm11-balanced band, and the labs and limits it meets make it eligible for that pack. Today it is one of the models in that pack's live pool.
Jev is new, so we have not published results for GPT-4.1 Mini 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.
