Subquadratic releases SubQ Snap, a decision model for agents that processes 100 thousand tokens in about a second

Another cheap, fast "decider" for agents has appeared that does not need to write long text.

According to Habr, the model accepts text and up to four images, has a 384 thousand token context window (12 times larger than Jev's), and returns a decision instead of text: a classification, a tool choice, an evaluation of a result. Linear rather than quadratic computational complexity is claimed (Subquadratic Sparse Attention). The price is $0.05 per million input tokens, with output free; the first 10,000 users get 100 million free tokens; access is a public preview. According to the developer, its decision index is 61.7 versus 57.9 for Jev.
