Release2026-09-25

Laya is a non-autoregressive System 1 decision engine. It makes typed choice, score, and yes/no decisions in one forward pass. It supports 100+ languages. A router picks the best checkpoint per request. It processes up to 8,192 tokens with a max_len setting. Fine-tuning on domain data boosts accuracy from 0.362 to 0.766. It runs in 33 ms per decision. It works zero-shot out of the box. The README now leads with installation, quickstart, and docs. A new documentation site includes an API reference.
