Microsoft-Decision-1 reads the content you send and returns a probability for each of a fixed set of answer options instead of writing text. Use it where a pick-one call drives your app: sorting tickets, routing requests, checking an answer, or deciding whether to act, wait or flag the case for a person. It reads about 33 pages at once. It cannot chat, translate or summarize, so pair it with a text model for those jobs.
