Jared Palmer open-sourced Kev, a small model built for making decisions. Give it a customer email, and it can work out which team should handle it, whether a human needs to step in, and how urgent it is. A single pass returns the answers and their probabilities. In the tests shown here, Kev comes close to Jev on some classification and rule-based tasks, while still trailing on knowledge questions and date calculations. For agent workflows, it’s worth testing small models like this for routine classification and routing, with larger models handling more complex tasks.
