// Background

DeepSeek: the AI revolution from China

Why an open-source model startled the industry — and what that means for your company.

A general introduction to DeepSeek

DeepSeek is a Chinese AI startup that has shaken up the industry with innovative open-source technology. Its core models deliver performance that competes with the leading systems from OpenAI and Google — at a fraction of the development cost.

DeepSeek's development and goals at a glance

DeepSeek was founded with the ambition to drastically lower the cost barriers of AI development. The goal: democratizing AI through open-source models that are accessible to companies and developers worldwide — instead of market concentration among a handful of tech giants.

The key models: DeepSeek V3 and DeepSeek R1

DeepSeek V3 is the all-round model for general applications, DeepSeek R1 the reasoning model for complex thinking and analysis tasks. In benchmarks, R1 reached the performance class of the top models from OpenAI and Google. At Mindverse, the latest generation — DeepSeek V3.2 — runs today as a Sovereign model on German infrastructure.

Disruption through DeepSeek: open-source models and their advantages

Open licenses mean models can be operated independently of their maker — for example, in Germany. That is exactly what Mindverse does to offer you frontier performance without data leaving the EU, embedded in Mindverse Studio with knowledge bases and workflows.

The cost of the AI arms race: big-tech investments compared

Announced AI investments and training costs — DeepSeek trained V3 for a tiny fraction of the US giants' budgets.

OpenAI / Softbank ~$100 bn
Microsoft ~$80 bn
Meta ~$60–65 bn
DeepSeek (V3 training) ~$5.6 m

DeepSeek R1's performance compared to the top models from OpenAI and Google

In independent benchmarks for mathematics, code, and logical reasoning, DeepSeek R1 plays in the same league as the flagship models from OpenAI and Google. For your company, that means: top performance is no longer a question of the biggest budget — but of the right, compliant deployment.

Which problem does this solve for your company?

Extreme development costs, limited accessibility, and a lack of transparency shape the AI market. Open-source models like DeepSeek break through this concentration — and Mindverse makes them usable in the European legal area: GDPR-compliant and ready for your company.

// FAQ

Frequently asked questions about DeepSeek at Mindverse

Is DeepSeek via Mindverse really GDPR-compliant?
Yes. Through the Sovereign models in Mindverse Studio, DeepSeek runs entirely on German infrastructure — your inputs never leave the EU and never flow to servers in China or the US. Data processing agreements under Art. 28 GDPR are included. Details on our security page.
Which DeepSeek version does Mindverse provide?
We currently host DeepSeek V3.2 as a Sovereign model on German infrastructure — the latest generation of the open-source model whose predecessors V3 and R1 matched the performance class of OpenAI and Google.
What does using DeepSeek via Mindverse cost?
You start with the free 7-day trial of Mindverse Studio. Sovereign models such as DeepSeek V3.2 are included from the Pro plan upwards — all details on the pricing page.
Why not just use DeepSeek directly?
When you use deepseek.com directly, your data is processed on servers in China — hardly defensible for European companies from a data-protection perspective. Via Mindverse you get the same model performance with German hosting, team management, knowledge bases, and audit logs.
Can I combine DeepSeek with other models?
Yes. Mindverse Studio is LLM-independent: switch freely between DeepSeek, GPT, Claude, Gemini, and Mistral in the AI chat — or let auto mode pick the best model per task.
