Describe External Model
Read what a community model on Replicate takes, returns and costs, before running it
About this capability
- Returns the model pinned to a version (`model`, to pass to `runExternalModel` as it is), its input and output schemas, its licence and its price per second of run time
- Free. Use it while building, to learn a model's field names, and keep the pinned `model` in the app's code: a model's latest version can change its fields
- Models Replicate maintains itself ("official" models) and private models are refused

Evaluate Decision
Ask structured questions about text, JSON, or images and get calibrated answers from a decision model. The model returns a probability, a selected option, or a score. It does not write a reply. Each question is a noul (yes or no, as a probability from 0 to 1), a choice (one option from a set you define, with a probability for each), or a score (a rating against ordered levels). Put every question in the same call. The question id is yours: answers come back under the same ids. The model defaults to Jev (jev-latest).
