Treat this as a split decision. DeepSeek V4 Pro Base makes more sense if knowledge is the priority or you would rather avoid the extra latency and token burn of a reasoning model; Qwen3.7 Plus is the better fit if reasoning is the priority or you want the stronger reasoning-first profile.
Confidence note. This is a partial-evidence comparison with 4 shared benchmark results across 1 evidence category; 2 of 8 categories currently have scoreable aggregates for both models. Treat the verdict as directional until coverage is more balanced.
Why this result
DeepSeek V4 Pro Base and Qwen3.7 Plus finish on the same BenchAlign overall score, so this is less about a single winner and more about where the edge shows up. The BenchAlign headline says tie; the benchmark table is where the real choice happens.
Qwen3.7 Plus is the reasoning model in the pair, while DeepSeek V4 Pro Base is not. That usually helps on harder chain-of-thought-heavy tests, but it can also mean more latency and more token spend in real use.
