DeepSeek V4 Pro is DeepSeek's flagship open-source model released in April 2026, featuring a 1.6T-parameter Mixture-of-Experts architecture with 49B parameters active per token. It supports a 1M-token context window through a novel hybrid attention mechanism combining Compressed Sparse Attention and DeepSeek Sparse Attention, reducing inference FLOPs to 27% and KV cache to 10% compared to V3.2 at million-token scale. Pre-trained on 33T tokens with post-training via GRPO reinforcement learning and on-policy distillation, V4 Pro delivers frontier-level performance in coding (LiveCodeBench 93.5, Codeforces 3206), math (IMOAnswerBench 89.8), and agentic tasks (SWE-bench Verified 80.6) — competitive with GPT-5.4 and Claude Opus 4.6 at a fraction of the cost. It natively supports thinking and non-thinking modes with configurable reasoning effort, function calling, JSON output, and has been specifically optimized for mainstream agent frameworks including Claude Code, OpenClaw, and OpenCode.

deepseek/deepseek-v4-pro
DeepSeek V4 Pro is DeepSeek's flagship open-source model released in April 2026, featuring a 1.6T-parameter Mixture-of-Experts architecture with 49B parameters active per token. It supports a 1M-token context window through a novel hybrid attention mechanism combining Compressed Sparse Attention and DeepSeek Sparse Attention, reducing inference FLOPs to 27% and KV cache to 10% compared to V3.2 at million-token scale. Pre-trained on 33T tokens with post-training via GRPO reinforcement learning and on-policy distillation, V4 Pro delivers frontier-level performance in coding (LiveCodeBench 93.5, Codeforces 3206), math (IMOAnswerBench 89.8), and agentic tasks (SWE-bench Verified 80.6) — competitive with GPT-5.4 and Claude Opus 4.6 at a fraction of the cost.
