Reducing Ambiguity in Json Schema Discovery
Summary: Reduces ambiguity in Json schema discovery for ad-hoc data and APIs with Jxplain, a heuristic-driven algorithm that constrains the schema space. Slightly slower than competitors but yields far more precise schemas, reducing validation false positives. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
