DeepSeek has launched the experimental multimodal model DeepSeek-V4-Flash-Vision-Exp on its API platform.
- Text capabilities match V4-Flash, covering agents, reasoning, and world knowledge.
- On multimodal agent benchmarks it makes a major leap over V4-Flash, bringing performance close to Anthropic's Opus 4.8.
- Available via model='deepseek-v4-flash-vision-exp'; DeepSeek Harness 0.1.1 released the same day with out-of-the-box support.
