DeepSeek V4.1 Flash-1017 Takes WebMCP Silver
DeepSeek’s updated Flash-1017 model reportedly solved all 49 WebMCP tasks in 3.3 seconds per task, placing second behind Haiku 5.5. It delivered the result at roughly 1/19 of a cent per task, despite costing 2.15× more than Haiku.
// ANALYSIS
This is a compelling agent-model result: DeepSeek is trading a small cost premium for near-perfect reliability and faster execution.
- –49/49 tasks demonstrates strong tool-use consistency across the WebMCP suite
- –Its 3.3-second median is about 10% faster than Haiku 5.5
- –The result strengthens DeepSeek’s position as a practical model for high-volume web agents
- –Benchmark outcomes remain dependent on harness design, task mix, and provider implementation
