Where it's used

Hugging Face does not say who downloads a model or with what. These are the proxies: API providers listing it, quantized builds, fine-tunes/adapters/merges, and Spaces that load it.

No API provider serves it, so its downloads are people running it themselves: 13 quantized builds.

Will it fit?

Weights only, an estimate: leave room for the KV cache. Method

Fits a 64 GB Mac (unified memory) at INT4

About 20 GB at INT4, 40 GB at FP8, 80 GB at BF16: weights only, so leave room for the KV cache.

What it is good at 2 use cases

Labels are evidence, not verdicts: measured a third-party leaderboard row for this model; author-reported a number the model author published in the card or eval files; structural a deterministic signal from the name, config or chat template, or a decision-model estimate. Each chip links to its source. All use cases.

DeepSeek V4 Flash 0731 (Max) is a 284B parameter open-weight model released on July 31, 2026, under the MIT license. It scores 34 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index while costing $0.14 per 1M input tokens and utilizing only 13B active parameters during inference. The model supports a 1M token context window and outputs text at 149.8 tokens per second.written, reviewed, cited
  • This model is deprecated and benchmarking continues only for the default 10k input token workload.
  • The model is notably fast but generates output that is very verbose compared to the median.
  • For a blended rate using a 7:2:1 cache hit/input/output ratio, the cost is $0.07 per 1M tokens.
