I think probably the closest thing to compare her to is Acosta (that should indicate how much play she will see). I compared them all out with a "winner" in parentheses. I think what is clear is that there is definitely a bit of power creep here, or that Savio is overcosted and J.A.I.M. is slightly undercosted or appropriate.
Cost: -1 (J.A.I.M.) Spd: Same (No Winner) Mat: -2 (Savio) Rat: Irrelevant vs 6 (Savio) Def: -1 vs Melee or Magic, +1 vs Ranged (Debatable) Arm: +2 (J.A.I.M.) Boxes: +3 (J.A.I.M.) Type: Construct vs Living Model (Repair vs Heal) (Savio)
Melee Attacks: -2 pow, -0.5" reach, +Grievous Wounds (Debatable) Ranged Attacks: None vs 2x 4" range, POW 12 electrical ranged attacks (Savio)
Maneuverability rules: Parry/Acrobatics/Side Step vs Swift Vengeance/Dodge (J.A.I.M.) Attack responses: Spinning blades (d3 on hit) vs Riposte (attack on miss) (Debatable) Flavor rule: Prey vs Lightning Immunity (J.A.I.M.)

MAT difference is -2 against non-Prey, and equivalent versus Prey. Melee Attacks P+S is in the same situation.

True (and edited the above to reflect, thanks!). I've historically undervalued prey because I find that it's hard to capitalize on against a good player, but it's a good callout.

Another one to compare JAIMS to would be First Mate Hawk, but I guess Hawk's as much a support solo as a combat solo.

To me she looks roughly like a more offensive Kayazy Elim, except that she doesn't have stealth, which is one of the reasons Kayazy have no problems with delivery or contesting. Run her under a caster with Blur, Decel, Veil of Mist or Bullet Dodger I guess?

A free 2" move/stand up and the ability to repair our friendly neighborhood weedwacker? Methinks you troll if you say the two are not essential together. This list makes itself.

She's sorta like a Kayazi Eliminator in one model. Spoiler: it turns out that J.A.I.M.S. is really two Kayazy Eliminators, one perched on top of the other, wearing a Convergence-themed trench coat.
