How it works

Using this offering

1Add a public request describing your workload, context needs and preferred rental term. A request does not reserve hardware or promise a deployment.
2If AxForge can offer a deployment, agree the configuration, hardware rental, licence and managed-service price in writing before anything is billed.
3Only after availability and terms are confirmed would AxForge provision the agreed dedicated system and model build.
4After provisioning, point your OpenAI SDK at your own endpoint with the model name you receive.
5After provisioning, adjust the term (hour, week, month or year) as your workload settles.

FAQ

DeepSeek-R1: common questions

Is DeepSeek-R1 on the AxForge serverless API?

This page describes the managed deployment option. Availability, the model build, hardware, licence and price must be agreed before a deployment can be offered. A public request does not provision or reserve a machine. Check the console for the current serverless offering list.

What hardware does DeepSeek-R1 need?

A multi-GPU system (H100, H200 or B200 class), which AxForge sources against your request and confirms in writing before anything is billed.

Is there a smaller option?

Yes, the R1 distilled models (Qwen and Llama based, 1.5B to 70B) carry much of the reasoning behaviour and fit a single dedicated machine; ask for them in the request.

How fast is it on your hardware?

AxForge publishes only numbers it measures itself, and has not benchmarked this model on its nodes yet. For quality benchmarks, see the official model card.

What does EU DeepSeek-R1 hosting cost?

For a deployment agreed after availability is confirmed: Hardware and the managed service are quoted per deployment. Both are confirmed in writing before anything is billed.
