Experimental model available through the DeepSeek API as deepseek-v4-flash-vision-exp
Publisher-reported capabilities
- The model accepts mixed text and image inputs through Chat Completions, Messages, and Responses APIs.
- DeepSeek reports text capabilities on par with DeepSeek V4 Flash and a substantial multimodal-agent improvement over the text-only model.
- The API supports a 1M-token context window and a maximum 384K combined thinking-and-output budget.
Limitations and availability caveats
- DeepSeek labels the model experimental and has not announced open weights.
- The launch benchmark values use DeepSeek's own harness at max effort and are not imported into independent sparse benchmark files.
- FIM completion is not supported on the vision endpoint.

Measured Coverage and Estimates
Deepseek V4 Flash Vision Exp has 12 of 39 tracked IQ benchmark inputs across 4 of 7 dimensions. Raw benchmark tables contain source-backed results only. Derived IQ combines all six dimensions using the shared scoring methodology, including estimates where direct coverage is incomplete. Configured predecessor references: Deepseek V4 Flash. A reference is an estimation input, not evidence that this model has the predecessor's measured results.
Among dimensions with direct benchmark coverage, this profile's highest estimated scores are Programmatic Reasoning (IQ 129) and Academic Reasoning (IQ 127). These dimension estimates can include statistical adjustments or predecessor priors; they are not raw benchmark percentages or claims of real-world task success.
Benchmark versions, evaluation harnesses, and coverage affect comparisons; a missing result is not a score of zero. See the scoring methodology for estimation and uncertainty limits.
