The OpenClaw vibes are hard to miss here.

Mostly one guy sending a fleet of agents to add features at unsustainable speeds who wants validation from a large org? I don't see many similar vibes at all, the founder already had massive impact at OpenAI and before that, Google Brain.

Extremely fast hype and a very short-lived moat, those are the parallels that I see. The OpenClaw guy was smart to cash out at peak hype, and chances are Jev will be overrun by big players and open-weights pretty soon too. I really love the idea, but just don't see any sustainable moat here. People are already coming knocking [0], it should only be a matter of time until we get something like Qwen3.9-Classify (or a classify mode just baked into a multimodal LLM).
The ability to use classifiers under the hood for the larger models has the potential to dramatically improve cost and throughput, allowing them to increase margin on a very similar service.
