Jev Engineering: a millisecond decision layer that makes 300-agent swarms 193x faster and 444x cheaper
Roger_M_Taylor · x · 2026-09-22
An in-depth article argues agent swarms waste time and money letting LLM calls decide each next step. Instead, Jev acts as a decision layer that routes hundreds of micro-decisions — which model to call, which tool gets access, which result survives — in milliseconds at near-zero cost. The workflow becomes state → decision layer → parallel routes → execution → verification → next state, yielding up to 193x speedups and 444x cost reductions in tests, with Kimi's 300-agent swarm as the execution example.
