Is Strike a drop-in Jev AI alternative?

Strike accepts the same /v1/systemone request shape, so most integrations switch by changing the base URL, the model id and the API key. Because the model is different, test on your own examples and re-tune any thresholds before moving production traffic.

Where does Strike process my data?

In the EU. strike-1, the API and the website run on OVHcloud in Gravelines, France. Account metadata lives in PostgreSQL in the EU.

How does Strike pricing compare with Jev?

Strike bills EUR 0.018 per million input tokens, does not bill output tokens and includes 10 free decisions a day. The pricing page shows Jev's published list price next to the Strike rate.

Is Strike affiliated with Jev or TypeSafe?

No. Strike is an independent service built by a separate company. Jev, TypeSafe and System One are named here only to describe compatibility and comparison.

Can I test Strike without an API key?

Yes. The playground runs through a server-side proxy, so you can send real requests from your browser without creating a key.

A European Jev AI alternative

Strike is an independent decision API hosted in the EU. It accepts the same POST /v1/systemone request shape as Jev, returns typed answers with a probability on each one, and runs on OVHcloud in Gravelines (France). This page lists what stays the same, what differs, and how to try it.

Why teams look at a Jev AI alternative

Data residency comes first. Some teams need their prompts processed in the EU, and a provider with EU hosting makes the data processing agreement and the transfer analysis shorter.

A second provider matters too. Two endpoints that speak the same interface reduce lock-in, and named questions let you move one decision at a time.

Cost is the third reason. Strike bills in EUR, charges input tokens only and includes a free daily allowance, so a routing or triage workload is cheap to run and easy to forecast.

What stays the same when you switch from Jev

The request body. You send a model, a state (string, object or array) and a map of named questions of type noul (yes/no), choice or score, each with instructions and, where relevant, criteria.

The response. Answers come back under the same question keys, in the same typed shape, so your parsing code does not change.

Three things change: the base URL becomes https://strike-ai.eu/v1/systemone, the model id becomes strike-1, and the Bearer key becomes a Strike API key. The migration guide covers header names and limits.

Where Strike differs from Jev

Probabilities on every answer. A choice returns a probability for each option, a yes/no question returns one probability, and a score returns a number on the scale you define. Your code can act above a threshold and ask a human below it.

Strike's own model on open infrastructure. strike-1 is served from EU hardware that Strike operates, and the stack can be tuned for decision tasks and hosted in France.

EU hosting by design. strike-1, the API, the public site and DNS run on OVHcloud in Gravelines (GRA11), France. Account metadata is stored in PostgreSQL in the EU.

What to check before you rely on it

Strike is in beta. Probabilities are real but not yet calibrated, so treat thresholds as something to tune on your own labelled examples.

Same interface, different model. Expect different answers on edge cases. Mirror a small share of traffic, log both answers side by side, and switch per question rather than all at once.

Limits and errors differ. Handle 429 with backoff and read the API reference for current limits.
