Quickstart

OpenAI-compatible: change the base URL, and the setup is complete.

from openai import OpenAI
import os

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="https://api.you.com/v1",
    api_key=os.environ["YOU_API_KEY"],
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="deepseek-v4-pro",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Summarize this support ticket in two sentences."}],
)

print(response.choices[0].message.content)

When to use DeepSeek V4 Pro

Guidance based on the specifications and benchmarks on this page.

Best for

  • Competitive coding and code generationDeepSeek reports top-tier coding results in Max mode, including 93.5% on LiveCodeBench and 80.6% on SWE-bench Verified.
  • Knowledge-heavy reasoningDeepSeek calls its Max mode the strongest open model for knowledge, with 90.1% on GPQA Diamond and 87.5% on MMLU-Pro.
  • Million-token context workloadsUses 10% of DeepSeek-V3.2's KV cache at 1M tokens, which makes very long inputs cheaper to process.

Consider alternatives for

  • You need image understandingDeepSeek V4 Pro takes text only; DeepSeek V4.1 Flash natively accepts images alongside text.
  • You need lower cost per tokenDeepSeek V4.1 Flash activates far fewer parameters per token and suits cost-sensitive, input-heavy agent work.
  • You need frontier agentic performanceDeepSeek says V4 Pro narrows, but doesn't close, the gap to closed frontier models on reasoning and agentic tasks.
