Wow never seen this broken down so cleanly. Ask a bunch of models the same political questions and you can see what they were actually built on 🤔

Microsoft, Perplexity and Cloudflare all fine-tuned their decision models off Qwen and they say Taiwan is part of China 86 to 97% of the time 😬

Guess fine-tuning doesn't wash it all out 👀

Are decision based models more pro-China?

We asked Jev and Mercury Decide questions about China: “Is Taiwan a part of China?”, “Does China commit crimes against humanity?” and their outputs leaned more pro-china compared to most frontier models.

Their responses resemble those of other decision models including Microsoft-Decision-1, Cloudflare’s Clef, and Perplexity’s PPLX Decider—all of which are fine-tuned from Qwen.

Months of work. Thousands of pages of statute. Live today, free for everyone.

Compound Laws: the legal status of kratom, 7-OH, hemp THC and 16 other compounds in all 50 states, DC and federal, with the actual law quoted on every page.

compoundlaws.com

Compliance shops charge hundreds of dollars a month for this exact information, then hand you a spreadsheet with no citations. We are giving it away. Free the information.

How we actually built it, because the process is the product:

Every state law is read in full from the official .gov source. Not a snippet, not a summary, the complete operative section, verbatim. If the text can't be pulled from a live government page, it doesn't go in. That one rule caught a fabricated Oklahoma citation months ago and it has been the law of this project ever since.

Every citation runs through gates: the URL has to resolve, the section number has to appear on the page, and the quoted text has to match the source byte for byte. Any hard "illegal" call needs two independent sources. Then a separate adversarial agent whose only job is to try to disprove every citation.

The first compound took about 16 hours per law to get right. We refined that into a parallel research pipeline, then handed the upkeep to Jev, our compliance AI. Jev reads the Federal Register, eCFR schedules, congress.gov, LegiScan across all 50 states, and state news feeds every morning. Every Monday it re-reads all 500 primary law pages, fingerprints them, and flags anything that changed. Nothing changes a published status without a human signing off, and every change is logged with the before, the after, and the date.

We also benchmark against what real national operators actually ship, so "illegal" means a named or categorical ban, and interpretive risk shows as gray instead of a scare flag.

19 compounds live right now:

Kratom
7-OH
Speciociliatine
Mitragynine Pseudoindoxyl
Delta-8 THC
Delta-9 THC (hemp-derived)
THCa
THCP
THCV
HHC
CBD
CBN
CBG / CBDA / CBGA
EPN (Euphorinol)
4-HO-MET
5-MAPB
Endomorphin-1
Blue Lotus
Amanita muscaria / Muscimol

Over 1,000 pages. Each one has the controlling statute, the citation, the verification date, a ban map, a change history, a JSON API twin, and an embeddable status card.

Who this is for:
Smoke shops deciding what to stock
Distributors deciding where to ship
Manufacturers writing labels and state-specific SKUs
Lawyers who want the primary source, not a blog post
Researchers, journalists, and anyone tired of guessing
