Person
Python developer who created the Flask web framework and contributed to Jinja and Pygments, and who spent roughly a decade at Sentry.
Diogo Almeida left OpenAI two years ago convinced that human language is the wrong output for automation. The model his startup shipped this week returns probabilities, and one team testing it clocked classification 5 to 18 times faster.
Reality
Diogo Almeida's TypeSafe put Jev into early access on 15 September with $40m from DCVC, and it sells a calibrated confidence number on every answer as the thing that makes automation possible, with the evaluations behind that claim built in-house.
Reality
Earendil's Pi 1.0 coding agent ships native MCP support after more than a year of criticising the protocol, running tool calls inside a WASM sandbox. The team credits a more stateless July 2026 spec and a sandbox it already needed for non-LLM models, so MCP support was a small addition.
Reality
Armin Ronacher let GPT-6 Astra code alone for 35 hours, spending about $1,200 on a net 75,000 lines of "absolutely nothing of value". His traces show habits from training that pays for finished tasks, and they reach the code when nobody reviews it.
Reality
A seven-part video walkthrough is packaging the Flask creator's Pi workflow for a general audience. The harness itself leaves isolation to the operator, and Earendil's own documentation says so plainly.
