DeepSeek V4 Flash
O3DeepSeek V4 Flash 0423 is DeepSeek's efficiency-optimized Mixture-of-Experts text model, designed for fast inference and workflows requiring tool use, function calling, and structured outputs. It features 284B total parameters with 13B activated parameters and supports a 1M-token context window with cost-effective pricing.
OpenAI o3 is a powerful model across multiple domains, setting a new standard for coding, math, science, and visual reasoning tasks.
Prices are per million tokens. Time to First Token and throughput are rolling averages measured on AIHubMix.
Promotional prices show the discounted rate; see each model page for promotion windows.
Daily traffic served through AIHubMix — how demand for each model is trending.
Measured on real AIHubMix traffic, hourly buckets. Gaps mean no traffic in that hour.
