Description
VerQen is a foundation decision model from ZorQelis AI: state in, decision out. Give it a policy, a case and options; it returns a decision with confidence and an escalation flag. Not a prompted LLM - trained from scratch as a decision model. Open weights (Apache 2.0) AND open training data, so the release is checkable. Measured 8.4 ms per decision on an RTX 5060 Ti; $1.81 per million. Quickstart reproduces its worked example (deny_refund, P_correct 0.6656).

Could you build this?
No Training a foundation decision model from scratch with custom architecture, novel pre-training datasets, and high-confidence decision theory cannot be achieved by vibe coding.
What it would actually take: Requires an ML research team with expertise in reinforcement learning, decision transformer architectures, and formal verification. The stack involves distributed GPU clusters (PyTorch, Ray, Megatron-LM), custom synthetic/tabular-state datasets representing multi-objective decision graphs, and rigorous safety alignment benchmarks.
