According to Vercel data published on Thursday, the AI model Jev became the fastest-adopted model ever, used by 35% of paid teams within two weeks of its launch and reaching nearly double the adoption of the second most popular model, Sonnet 5.5. Launched in limited release on September 15 by Typesafe AI, Jev is a lightweight decision model designed to choose between a few pre-determined outputs, making it cheaper and faster for classifying large data quantities. The data comes from Vercel’s AI gateway, which may undercount usage from major labs like OpenAI and Anthropic, but it confirms that the buzz translated into real usage. Vercel itself was an early adopter, using Jev to replace GPT-6 Luna for classifying harmful commands. The report also shows open-source models now account for over 70% of tokens processed and nearly 25% of total spend on Vercel’s gateway, while spending on frontier labs grew ten-fold, suggesting frontier and open-source models may be complementary rather than competitive.
