Jev as a routing gate: confident rows pass, hard ones go to Claude

This is completely f*cking wild. A Stanford AI researchers gave Claude Code a second brain with JEV. The result? 80+ billion data points processed every 14 minutes. here's how it works: Jev stands at the door. every row has to get past it first. the easy ones it waves through on the spot. only the ones it can't call get sent upstairs to Claude. the old way: everything -> Claude -> big bill the new way: everything -> Jev -> the tricky few -> Claude Jev also tells you how sure it is on every call. that number decides who goes upstairs. just don't pick it out of thin air. test it first. the 20-minute setup: 1. take 200 real rows from your data 2. run them through Jev AND Claude 3. sort Jev's answers by how sure it was 4. find the point where Jev stops disagreeing with Claude. that's your cutoff 5. above it, Jev's answer is final. below it, the row goes to Claude then do the math. on a public benchmark Jev cost $0.015 per 1,000 rows and Claude cost $0.80. if Jev settles 80% of your rows: $0.015 + (20% × $0.80) = $0.175 per 1,000 rows instead of $0.80 that's ~78% off, with Claude still handling every hard case. 3 rules that keep it working: -> ask all your questions in one Jev call. topic, urgency and sentiment together, not three separate requests -> once a week, send 50 of Jev's "confident" answers to Claude anyway. if they start disagreeing, raise the cutoff -> never let Jev make the final call on anything you can't undo. refunds, bans, deletions go to Claude or a human where this pays off right away: -> support tickets: route by topic and urgency -> leads: hot, warm or skip -> comments: fine, spam or needs a look -> spreadsheets: fix category labels across thousands of rows Claude thinks. Jev picks. code ships.
