Gemini 3.7 Flash vs DeepSeek V4 Flash
Two sources on this page and no others: what Kyma measured while serving these two models, and the specification Google and DeepSeek publish for their own. Both run on one key, so switching is a one-line change.

Where these models sit in the catalogue Kyma measures
Two numbers side by side tell you which is bigger and nothing about whether either is any good, so every panel puts these models against every text model Kyma prices per token, all 59 of them. That set is a stated rule and not a list, so there is no line-up to accuse anyone of choosing. Price is what Kyma charges today. Availability, throughput and latency are Kyma's own readings over 30 days, on the same method as /models. No benchmark scores, borrowed or invented.

DeepSeek V4 FlashTicks above the rail are the models on this page; below it is every other model Kyma measures on this, 59 in all, on the same scale. The dashed rule is the field median, 1.49; the solid rule is its best, 0.00, and 6 models sit beyond the axis.
The gap between them is under 5.2 points, which is one failed request in the thinnest sample here. So these rows are in page order and nothing is marked: the ordering would be the claim, and it is the claim this sample cannot support.

Two sources, and nothing borrowed
On this page
Measured by Kyma
Uptime, throughput, latency and the precision the routes behind each model report, from Kyma's own traffic. Ours to publish, and it refreshes itself. Every one of them is drawn against the whole catalogue, because a figure with nothing to compare it to is not evidence.
Published by the creator
Context window, maximum output, accepted inputs, and tool, reasoning and vision support. Each creator's own specification for its own model, as is the precision each creator released its model at, which is the only thing that makes a serving format count as below it.
Taken off it
Third-party benchmark scores
We do not run those scoreboards. One can go stale without telling anyone, and it takes the page's credibility with it.
A Kyma quality score
We do not have one. Inventing a number to fill the gap would be worth less than the scores that were removed.
So this page will not tell you which model is smarter. It tells you which is cheaper, which is faster, which stays up, where each one sits against every other model we sell, and whether it is served below the precision its creator released it at. For the quality question, run them both on your own prompts. One key, one line changed, and the answer is about your work rather than someone else's test set.

Which of Gemini 3.7 Flash and DeepSeek V4 Flash is cheapest?
On input tokens today, DeepSeek V4 Flash at $0.1389 per 1M. Gemini 3.7 Flash is $0.5063. The panels above put both of those against every model Kyma prices, so you can see whether either is actually cheap.
Can I switch between Gemini 3.7 Flash and DeepSeek V4 Flash without changing my code?
Yes. All of them are served through the same OpenAI-compatible Kyma endpoint (https://kymaapi.com/v1) on one API key and one balance. Switching is a one-line change to the model field: `gemini-3.7-flash`, `deepseek-v4-flash`.
Which has the largest context window?
Gemini 3.7 Flash, at 1.05M tokens. DeepSeek V4 Flash has 1M. Pick the larger one for long documents or repository-level context.
Where do these numbers come from?
Two places and no others. Uptime, throughput, latency and the precision the routes report are measured by Kyma on its own traffic over the last 30 days, across all 59 models it prices per token, 59 of which are measured. Context window, maximum output, accepted inputs, tool, reasoning and vision support are the specification each creator publishes for its own model, cited on the model's own page, and so is the precision each creator released its model at. The "below release precision" row is the two put together: a serving format only counts as below the release once you know what the release was. This page carries no third-party benchmark scores, so it cannot rank these models on quality, and it does not pretend to.
Is there a discount running on any of these?
Gemini 3.7 Flash is 50% off until Aug 21, at $0.5063 per 1M input instead of $1.013. The rate is honoured through that date, then returns to list.
