Model detail

DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731

Provided by DeepSeek
Pay-as-you-go

DeepSeek V4 Flash is an efficiency-optimized Mixture-of-Experts model from DeepSeek with 284B total parameters and 13B activated parameters, supporting a 1M-token context window. It is designed for fast inference and high-throughput workloads, while maintaining strong reasoning and coding performance. The model includes hybrid attention for efficient long-context processing. Reasoning efforts `high` and `xhigh` are supported; `xhigh` maps to max reasoning. It is well suited for applications such as coding assistants, chat systems, and agent workflows where responsiveness and cost efficiency are important.

Capabilities & compatibility

Unconfirmed capabilities stay "Unknown," no guesses

Available:

Tool calling

DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731 supports function and tool calls.

EX Send a tools definition; the response returns tool_calls to execute and feed results back.
Available:

Structured output

DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731 can produce JSON-formatted output on demand.

EX response_format: { type: "json_schema" } forces valid JSON output.
Available:

Streaming

DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731 supports streamed responses.

EX stream: true streams tokens incrementally, so chat UIs render as they arrive.
Available:

Prompt caching

DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731 supports prompt caching under supported routing conditions.

EX Keep the system prompt and tool definitions at the start of the request; repeated prefixes are automatically billed at the cache-read rate.
Available:

OpenAI SDK

Call DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731 through MixRoute's OpenAI-compatible endpoint.

EX Change base_url to https://api.mixroute.ai/v1; everything else follows the OpenAI style.
