BlockRun.AI vs Jais 3

BlockRun.AI

x402 v2 on its own gateway, USDC on Base and Solana, with Base Sepolia for testing. The status page shows live checks only and keeps no incident history.

Jais 3

Jais 3 runs on the owner's hardware through OpenAI-compatible servers in vLLM and SGLang, with tool calls, three reasoning levels and a 512K context, from a 2.2 GB 0.9B model to a 758 GB 375B one. The weights download without sign-up under Apache-2.0, but every launch command trusts remote code, and no technical report or security contact is published.

BlockRun.AI

1. Fund a dedicated wallet with a small USDC balance. The balance is the spending cap
2. Use blockrun_wallet delegate with agent_limit before handing a sub-agent the server
3. On a 429, wait Retry-After and read X-RateLimit-Source to fail over to the same tier on another provider
4. Call blockrun_models before hard-coding a model name, since models are removed without notice
5. Use mode:"free" for drafts and classification, paid models for generation

Jais 3

1. Start vLLM or SGLang with --reasoning-parser k2_horizon, and add --tool-call-parser k2_horizon (vLLM also --enable-auto-tool-choice) for tools, or tool calls come back as raw text
2. Pass reasoning_effort (high, medium or low) and tool_call_format inside chat_template_kwargs. Other values return a template error
3. Send each earlier assistant turn back with reasoning_content as a string, even an empty one. A missing or null thinking field makes the template raise an error
4. Send your own system message, or set default_system_prompt to an empty string. Without one the template inserts an identity prompt naming IFM, Inception42 and Cerebras
5. Budget at least 32,768 output tokens at high effort, which the cards recommend for every request
