About NVIDIA DeepSeek V4 Flash (Free)
DeepSeek V4 Flash (Free) is a reasoning and coding model from NVIDIA with a 1M-token context window and up to 16K tokens of output per call. It is free to call here — no payment header and no wallet. It is served through BlockRun's OpenAI-compatible API, so it can be called without an account, an API key, or a subscription.
What it costs
DeepSeek V4 Flash (Free) is free to call on BlockRun. No payment header is required, no wallet needs funding, and no API key is issued — requests are rate limited per IP rather than billed. It is a practical way to develop against the API surface before moving production traffic onto a paid model.

Calling it from your code
Pass nvidia/deepseek-v4-flash as the model field. Because the endpoint mirrors the OpenAI chat completions schema, any existing OpenAI client works by changing the base URL — streaming, tool use, and multi-turn messages all behave the same way.
The first request returns a 402 carrying the exact price; a signed retry runs it, and client libraries fold the two into one call — how the payment works. See the documentation for request and response shapes, the LLM API page for every model on this endpoint, or browse the full catalog of 78 chat models to compare alternatives.
