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: 18 quantized builds.

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.
