About
DeepSeek V4 Pro is DeepSeek's flagship open-weights model, released April 24 2026 under the MIT license. Architecture: 1.6T total / 49B active parameters, MoE with Compressed Sparse Attention (CSA) + Heavily Compressed Attention (HCA) hybrid — requiring only 27% of inference FLOPs vs standard 1M-context transformers — plus Manifold-Constrained Hyper-Connections (mHC) and Muon Optimizer. Context window: 1,000,000 tokens; max output: 384,000 tokens (Think Max mode requires >=384K context). Text-only (no vision/image input). Supports three reasoning modes: Non-Think, Think High, Think Max. Function calling, tool use, and structured outputs supported.
