About this release
DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 is an October 17, 2026 checkpoint update to the V4.1-Flash line. It improves scores across coding, agentic, and visual benchmarks while reducing output length and task time versus the September release. The model runs under the existing deepseek-flash API endpoint, ships with MIT-licensed weights on Hugging Face, and supports 1M-token context with image input.
