Venice.aiTL;DR:
Use DeepSeek in Venice to prevent all your data from going to the CCP
Venice Pro users can now use DeepSeek R1 70B and the more powerful Deepseek R1 671B
DeepSeek outperforms Llama 3 across key benchmarks with innovative training methods
Features 30K token context window on Venice
Access DeepSeek via Venice Pro or the Venice API with VVV staking
Venice offers access to breakthrough AI through carefully curated open-source models. The DeepSeek models represents a significant shift in AI development, proving that innovative training methods can match or exceed the capabilities of today’s mainstream models requiring massive computational resources.
Why DeepSeek Matters
DeepSeek challenges the assumption that advanced AI requires enormous computing power. Through sophisticated training approaches rather than raw computational force, it demonstrates remarkable performance while maintaining efficiency. The model achieves a groundbreaking 97.3% accuracy on the MATH-500 benchmark and demonstrates expert-level coding abilities with a 2,029 Elo rating on Codeforces.
DeepSeek employs an innovative approach called test-time or inference-time compute, which transforms how the model tackles complex reasoning tasks. Instead of generating immediate responses, the model breaks down queries into smaller, manageable tasks and shows its complete thought process.
The launch has significantly disrupted the AI market, causing ripples through the industry and demonstrating that high-quality AI can be achieved with fewer resources. This efficiency translates directly to accessibility and cost-effectiveness for developers, organizations, and AI platforms like Venice.
How DeepSeek Compares to Leading Models
DeepSeek stands out through several key metrics.
It delivers faster output speeds than GPT-4 and Llama 3, while maintaining competitive accuracy scores across major benchmarks. The model's 30K context window provides ample space for complex tasks without the computational overhead of larger models.
How to Generate Code with DeepSeek
Let's explore how to use DeepSeek R1 70B in Venice for practical code generation. We'll create a web scraper that demonstrates the model's ability to handle complex programming tasks while maintaining Venice's commitment to privacy.
Step 1: Visit Venice.ai and select coding mode
Go to Venice.ai and choose DeepSeek R1 70B or DeepSeek R1 671B from the model dropdown. We'll use Deepseek R1 70B for this example.
Then, select the “Build code” mode.
Unlike other platforms that store your code and prompts, Venice only stores conversations and data privately in your browser.
Step 2: Write your code generation prompt
Tell DeepSeek what you want to build. Here's an example prompt:
"Create a Python web scraper that:
Uses BeautifulSoup to extract headlines from news websites
Saves the data to CSV files with timestamps
Includes error handling and logging
Uses classes for better organization
Please explain how each part works.”
Step 3: Review the generated code
DeepSeek in Venice will provide a structured implementation, explaining each step.
Toggle the “Thought Process” dropdown to see how DeepSeek interpreted your prompt and generated the answer.

Using DeepSeek Through the Venice API
Venice's API provides programmatic access to both DeepSeek models while maintaining our commitment to privacy and unrestricted AI. Through VVV, you can access AI inference without per-request fees or usage tracking.
When you stake VVV tokens, you receive ongoing access to Venice's API capabilities proportional to your stake size. This approach eliminates traditional API pricing models while ensuring fair resource allocation. Your stake determines your share of total inference capacity, allowing you to make calls to DeepSeek and other models without additional costs.
Go to venice.ai/token, where you can stake VVV tokens. Each token represents a share of Venice's total API capacity, providing predictable, ongoing access to powerful AI capabilities while maximizing user privacy.
