Benchmarks & proof
Honest, reproducible evidence that Neuron-JS is fast enough, small enough, and — above all — inspectable. Every number on these pages comes from a real benchmark run you can reproduce with yarn benchmark; nothing is hand-entered.
What's here
- Benchmark results — measured throughput, cold-start, bundle-size, validation, and explanation-overhead, compared against
json-rules-engine,json-logic-js, a hand-coded TypeScript baseline, andrule-engine-js. - Methodology — what we compare, how each metric is measured, and our no-fabricated-numbers policy.
- AI-rule safety — why AI-drafted JSON rules still need schema validation, a developer-owned registry, and explanation traces before production.
How a rule becomes an explainable decision
Neuron-JS turns serializable JSON rules into deterministic, auditable decisions: input and rule JSON are schema-validated, executed through a developer-owned registry and Synapse, and returned with an explanation trace showing why a rule matched or failed.
This makes four things visible:
- Rules are serializable JSON data.
- Schema validation happens before runtime.
- Execution is deterministic through a developer-owned registry and Synapse.
- Explanation traces show why a rule matched or failed.
