DeepSeek-V4-Flash-Max

DeepSeek-V4-Flash-Max is the maximum reasoning effort mode of DeepSeek-V4-Flash, a 284B-parameter MoE model with 13B activated parameters and a 1M-token context window. Sharing the V4 series' hybrid attention architecture (Compressed Sparse Attention combined with Heavily Compressed Attention), Manifold-Constrained Hyper-Connections, and Muon optimizer, V4-Flash-Max delivers reasoning performance comparable to V4-Pro when given a larger thinking budget while operating at a fraction of the parameter scale. It is pre-trained on more than 32T tokens and post-trained with a two-stage paradigm of domain-specific expert cultivation followed by on-policy distillation.
