Developer Uses Jev Decision Model to Fix Repetitive Game Recommendations on likethisgame.com

A developer running likethisgame.com discovered that popular titles like Black Myth: Wukong were being recommended across unrelated game genres, appearing on one in every ten pages. The root cause was a flawed candidate selection process that defaulted to popular games when no similar titles could be found, causing the same 20 games to appear regardless of genre. To fix this, the developer integrated Jev, a decision model from TypeSafe accessed via OpenRouter's Decisions API, to rate how well candidate games fit each other before passing the results to the recommendation model. Rather than replacing the language model, Jev was used upstream to score and filter candidates, improving the relevance of the final recommendation lists. The developer tested changes incrementally using side-by-side comparisons, keeping only the adjustments that showed measurable improvement.
