FAQ
How big is the DeepSeek-V4-Pro download?
The official FP4 + FP8 Mixed weights in deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Pro are 864.7 GB. The smallest listed download is 837.0 GB, the 4bit MLX build from mlx-community/DeepSeek-V4-Pro-4bit. Plan for more memory than the file size: the context (KV cache) and the operating system need room too.
Can I use DeepSeek-V4-Pro commercially?
DeepSeek-V4-Pro is released under MIT, and commercial use is allowed. The license text is at https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Pro/blob/main/LICENSE.
