Laya — 33ms Multilingual System 1 Decision Engine with Calibrated Probabilities
![]()
Nandakishor Mukkunnoth, founder and CEO of ConvAI Innovations, says the idea behind non-autoregressive decision models was in ConvAI's own March 2025 arXiv paper, and answers TypeSafe AI's Jev, which in Mukkunnoth's account was launched as a brand-new breakthrough, with Laya, an open family of such "System 1" models. Built on bidirectional encoders, Laya answers typed questions about any text or JSON document (pick a choice, place it on a scored rubric, or give the probability that a statement is true) in a single forward pass, though its probabilities are well calibrated only once a temperature is fitted for each question type. It ships with a router that detects the input's script, a pip package and Apache 2.0 weights. The speed and "cannot hallucinate" claims are the author's own, set against a rival, and the page is candid about limits: on Banking77, with 77 labels, Laya scored 0.425 to Jev's 0.870.
