deepseek-v3.1 - API in Egypt, billed in EGP

Live
DeepSeek

DeepSeek-V3.1 is post-trained on the top of DeepSeek-V3.1-Base, which is built upon the original V3 base checkpoint through a two-phase long context extension approach, following the methodology outlined in the original DeepSeek-V3 report. We have expanded our dataset by collecting additional long documents and substantially extending both training phases. The 32K extension phase has been increased 10-fold to 630B tokens, while the 128K extension phase has been extended by 3.3x to 209B tokens. Additionally, DeepSeek-V3.1 is trained using the UE8M0 FP8 scale data format to ensure compatibility with microscaling data formats.
