⚡ V4.1-Flash is now live on the DeepSeek API with native multimodal support.
Set your model to deepseek-flash.
🔹 V4-Flash & V4-Flash-Vision-Exp are retired. For compatibility, deepseek-v4-flash and deepseek-v4-flash-vision-exp temporarily route to V4.1-Flash.
🔹 Tests by multiple parties put V4.1-Flash ahead of V4-Pro on performance, cost, speed & total runtime. We’re phasing out V4-Pro.
🔹 Starting at 04:00 UTC on Sept 14, 2026, all deepseek-v4-pro requests will route to V4.1-Flash at V4.1-Flash rates. This will continue until V4.1-Pro launches.
🤝 Official partners @WorkBuddy_AI (including Codebuddy) & @opencode now fully support V4.1-Flash. Try it today!
