BenchLM is tracking DeepSeek V4 Flash Base, but this profile is currently excluded from the public leaderboard because it still lacks enough non-generated benchmark coverage to rank safely. Only non-generated public benchmark rows appear below.
DeepSeek V4 Flash Base is a open weight model with a 1M token context window. It processes queries without explicit chain-of-thought reasoning, offering faster response times and lower token usage.
DeepSeek V4 Flash Base sits inside the DeepSeek V4 family alongside DeepSeek V4 Pro (Max), DeepSeek V4 Pro (High), DeepSeek V4 Flash (Max), DeepSeek V4 Flash (High), DeepSeek V4 Pro, DeepSeek V4 Pro Base, DeepSeek V4 Flash. This profile currently has 24 of 323 tracked benchmarks. BenchLM only exposes non-generated benchmark rows publicly, so missing categories stay blank until a sourced evaluation is available.
Its strongest category is Knowledge (#48). This performance profile makes it particularly effective for knowledge-intensive tasks like research, analysis, and factual Q&A.
