Bench index

Bench is our quality index for every model, 0 to 100. It rests on public measurements (Epoch AI with about 40 benchmarks, LiveBench, LMArena and more) and is refreshed every morning. Where nobody measures, it shows an estimate with a range.

Frequently asked questions

Can I run DeepSeek Coder V2 Lite Instruct in the EU?

Yes. HostYourAI runs DeepSeek Coder V2 Lite Instruct on GPUs in European datacenters via vLLM. Prompts and outputs never leave the EU and there is no US cloud provider in the chain.

Is hosting DeepSeek Coder V2 Lite Instruct GDPR-compliant?

Yes. All processing happens inside the EU, a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) is available and the subprocessor list is public. Open-source weights also mean: no training on your data.

How much does DeepSeek Coder V2 Lite Instruct cost?

DeepSeek Coder V2 Lite Instruct is available on request: through the shared EU router after a quick chat, or as your own dedicated GPU deployment billed per hour. Tell us your use case and we will set it up for you.

Is the API OpenAI-compatible?

Yes. You use the standard OpenAI SDKs with a custom base URL (https://hostyourai.com/api/v1). The Anthropic Messages API is supported as a drop-in as well.

DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017

DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 is a minor update to DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash, delivering substantial improvements across reasoning, coding, agentic tasks, and visual benchmarks. Alongside these gains, the model reduces task execution time and output length, enabling users to complete tasks faster and at lower cost and advancing the performance–cost Pareto frontier across multiple agent harnesses.
