The README opens with

Zero-shot named entity recognition built on TypeSafe Jev. Describe your entity types in one line each. No training data, no GPU, no fine-tuning.

Jev answers typed multiple-choice questions with calibrated probabilities, but it never returns entity spans on its own. JevSpan turns it into an entity recognizer. It cuts text at punctuation, offers every candidate window to Jev as an option, verifies what Jev nominates, and then lets Jev settle the exact boundaries and type. Every entity comes back with a probability and a trace of the questions that produced it.
