Imagine having a model that's 35 times cheaper than the best Claude models — yet just as intelligent?
China just turned the entire AI race on its head with the new DeepSeek v4 Flash model. This is unbelievable.
We are talking cents here — it's not even up to 1 dollar per million tokens. It's not even up to 50 cents.
We've never seen something like before.
It even dominated almost all the Opus models in the Frontend Code AI Arena -- and keep in mind that it's at least 35 times cheaper than all the close-sourced models that rank above (and below!) it here:
And this shockingly cheap intelligence is just one of the many things that make this new model so incredible.
It uses a state-of-the-art thinking system that makes it exponentially more efficient and powerful than models of a similar size.
It uses a sophisticated token processing system that dramatically improves the quality of the 1 million token context window it has.
This is going to be a major major game changer for so many developers.
It was clearly built from the ground up and optimized for AI agents and software engineering.
The model gives us significant gains on several challenging coding benchmarks.
DeepSeek V4 Flash achieved 79.0% on SWE-bench Verified, finishing within 1.8 percentage points of Claude Opus 4.7 (80.8%) and 1.6 points of DeepSeek V4 Pro (80.6%) while delivering significantly lower inference costs.
DeepSeek also reports a 12+ percentage point reduction in hallucination rates compared to previous generations.
For autonomous agents, that means:
fewer incorrect commands
more reliable tool usage
better multi-step execution
less manual intervention
These improvements also make v4 Flash a more than excellent choice to use with Claude Code and OpenClaw.
You're basically paying next to nothing:
Self updating docs are here!
When a pull request ships without a docs update, it's not a failure. It's just how fast teams move. But those gaps add up, and eventually someone has to go back and fill them. Mintlify Workflows takes that off your team's plate. It auto-generates changelogs, flags broken links, and drafts updates on every push, so your docs stay current without anyone having to make it their job.
