DeepSeek V4.1 Flash

DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash is a multimodal Mixture-of-Experts model with 552B backbone parameters that natively processes images and text at up to 1M token context. Its Causal Encoder-Decoder architecture activates only 8B parameters during prefill and 16B during decode, cutting the KV cache footprint to roughly a quarter of DeepSeek-V4-Flash for cost-efficient agentic workloads.
