Developers and AI engineering teams needing to make fast, confidence-calibrated routing, classification, scoring, guardrail, and tool-use decisions inside agentic workflows
About Strands Decider
Strands Decider is a small, fast decision model, or System One model, built for agentic AI workflows. Unlike an LLM that generates arbitrary text, it chooses between predefined options, answers yes-or-no questions, or rates inputs on an ordered scale. Each decision includes calibrated confidence, making it possible to send uncertain cases to a larger model or a human while handling routine decisions quickly. The first model in the family, strands-decider-2B, has 1.9 billion parameters and is based on a Qwen3.5-2B-Base torso with its language-modeling head replaced by a lightweight pointer head. It evaluates answers in one forward pass without text generation or a decoding loop. Supported decision types include choice, noul for probability-of-true questions, and score for ordered scales. The model is designed for tasks such as model routing, tool selection, tool-argument checking, request triage, grounding and safety guardrails, policy classification, and low-cost evaluation.

Clef-flash
Clef-flash is a fast 9B multimodal decision model that turns a state and a schema of typed questions into structured decisions. It can read state information as text, JSON, images, or video and returns a probability for every allowed option of every question. The model supports a 24,576-token context window and vision input, allowing developers to evaluate structured application data and visual content within the same workflow. Clef Flash supports three typed question formats: noul for estimating the probability that a proposition is true, choice for selecting among predefined options with per-option probabilities, and score for evaluating an input against ordered criteria and returning a probability-weighted score. Applications can submit from 1 to 64 questions in a single request, with answers returned under the same question IDs. Example uses include deciding whether a support request is urgent, routing it to the correct team, and scoring the severity of customer impact.

Parallel Decisions API
Parallel Decisions API is a hosted, web-grounded classification API for developers building software, data-enrichment pipelines, and AI-agent workflows. A request supplies context and one or more bounded questions; the API returns typed answers with probabilities and citations to supporting web sources. Multiple questions can share context in a single request, supporting uses such as company or vendor qualification, lead routing, compliance screening, content filtering, and agent guardrails. By retrieving current web evidence, it can assess facts that may have changed since a model's training data. Developers call the REST endpoint with an API key or access the web_decisions tool through Parallel's MCP server. A hosted playground and documentation support testing and implementation.

Liquid d1
d1 is Liquid AI’s first decision model, built to answer structured questions about a situation with probabilities rather than generating text. It takes unstructured data such as text, images, or both, along with one or more questions, processes them in a single forward pass, and returns probabilities without generating output tokens. d1 supports three question types: noul for yes-or-no decisions, choice for selecting among labels with a probability for each option, and score for placing an input on an ordered scale using probability-weighted levels. Multiple questions can be evaluated against the same state in one request, making it useful for real-time decision workflows. Liquid AI demonstrates d1 across applications such as filtering support tickets, browsing code repositories, organizing documents into smart folders, operating websites, compacting agent context, inspecting industrial parts, and playing games from screenshots.
