Decision reading

Inkling-Small has the higher public score estimate, 65.25 versus 60.93, but the 90% score intervals overlap. Treat that as a lead, not a settled winner.

11 results are shared. Category rows based on different benchmark sets are marked directional and do not name a winner.

Which one for your work

Recommendations appear only when a shared evidence basis or an explicit operating constraint supports the call. Secondary and unsupported use cases stay disclosed below the initial list.

What is actually comparable

Shape of the matched evidence

Only shared public evidence is shown. Sparse evidence stays a ruled list rather than being closed into a radar shape.

Too few matched category axes support a radar. The ruled list below shows only shared benchmark results; positions use each benchmark’s normalized display scale when available.

What each workload costs

Three fixed token mixes turn per-token rates into comparable decisions. Each scenario states context fit and whether cached input had to fall back to the published list-input rate.

Frequently asked questions

Which is better, DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 or Inkling-Small?

Inkling-Small has the higher public score estimate, 65.25 versus 60.93, but the 90% score intervals overlap. The higher estimate is not a decisive winner because the uncertainty ranges overlap.

Which is better for coding, DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 or Inkling-Small?

The current coding averages use different weighted benchmark sets, so BenchLM does not name a winner from them. Read the shared benchmark rows directly and test the models on the same task set.

Which is better for agentic tasks, DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 or Inkling-Small?

DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 leads the like-for-like agentic tasks comparison across 2 shared weighted benchmark rows.

Which costs less, DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 or Inkling-Small?

For the stated presets, chat costs $0.00087 on DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 and $0.0013 on Inkling-Small; repository review costs $0.02436 and $0.03332; the cache-heavy agent loop costs $0.01812 and $0.0492. Costs use the listed standard API rates.

Which has the larger context window, DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 or Inkling-Small?

Both models list the same context window, 1M.
