What it decides

Returns: A probability for each option of every typed question you pass (choice, yes/no, score), in one pass.
Checks: Routing, intent, triage, moderation, yes/no questions in 100+ languages
Languages: Multilingual
Precision: 60 / 100 · 0.366 macro intent accuracy across 51 MASSIVE languages (20 options) vs 0.227 for the English Laya checkpoint, and 0.731 on XNLI in 14 non-English languages (model card).
Clarity: Probability or score (15 of 15 clarity points)
How it runs: Classifier head · reads the input once and writes nothing, so it answers in milliseconds.

Check it on your own hardware

Estimates come from published hardware specs and our open formulas, not from running the model on your machine. Real speed varies with runtime, drivers and settings. Numbers marked “Measured” come from a linked benchmark.
