DeepSeek is officially releasing its flagship AI model, V4-Pro, after months of preview availability. The company makes the update available on its app, via its web interface, and through its API, framing it as the move from preview to general release.
Both sources report that the launch package includes improvements over the preview version, with one outlet highlighting stronger capabilities in areas such as AI agents and coding. One source also specifies a version designation (DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813), describing the new build as superseding the earlier preview release that had been available since April.
The announcements also include pricing changes. Quartz says a price increase is set to follow on August 16, while TechGenyz similarly notes new pricing alongside the software release. Taken together, the coverage indicates that DeepSeek pairs the model rollout with a planned adjustment to how the service is priced, but the sources do not detail the magnitude of the increase or the exact rate structure.
