How to pick within DeepSeek
- V4 Pro for reasoning and coding work where you still want the low cost band.

If you are on the Free plan, V4.1 Flash is the model you can pin. Everything else in the catalog needs a paid plan.
Set it on an agent or a chat
Open the model menu in the builder chat or on an agent. In the builder chat, choose from Custom Engine. In the agent editor, choose from All Models. The choice applies only to that surface. An AI step in an automation offers TSK-Auto and the rungs only.
If you do not want to pin a model, a rung sets a speed-to-depth trade-off and follows the catalog forward as models change.
