About R1 Distill Qwen 14B
DeepSeek R1 Distill Qwen 14B is a distilled large language model based on [Qwen 2.5 14B](https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-14B), using outputs from [DeepSeek R1](/deepseek/deepseek-r1). It outperforms OpenAI's o1-mini across various benchmarks, achieving new state-of-the-art results for dense models. Other benchmark results include: - AIME 2024 pass@1: 69.7 - MATH-500 pass@1: 93.9 - CodeForces Rating: 1481 The model leverages fine-tuning from DeepSeek R1's outputs, enabling competitive performance comparable to larger frontier models.
Model Specifications
DeepSeek R1 Distill Qwen 14B: hosted API vs local GGUF
The model name appears in both API pricing searches and local-download searches, but those workflows have different costs and requirements.
| Option | What you pay for | Best fit | Main limitation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hosted API | $0.15 input and $0.15 output per 1M tokens | Fast integration, elastic traffic, no GPU operations | Ongoing token charges and provider-specific limits |
| Local GGUF | Hardware, electricity, storage, and engineering time | Offline testing, privacy-sensitive experiments, steady utilization | Quantization quality, memory capacity, and slower setup |
Context size and settings
This listing records a 131k context window. Actual usable context can vary by host, quantization, runtime, memory, and prompt template. Treat community KoboldCpp or SillyTavern settings as runtime guidance rather than API pricing data.
How to compare total cost
Use the hosted token calculator for irregular workloads. For local deployment, compare GPU memory, expected tokens per second, utilization, power cost, and maintenance. A zero token price does not mean zero operating cost.
Common questions
Is GGUF included in this API price? No. GGUF is a local model file format; the prices above describe hosted inference rows available on this site.
Should I use 14B locally or through an API? Choose local inference when you can support the hardware and need control. Choose a hosted API when setup speed, scaling, and operational simplicity matter more.
Best For
- Complex reasoning, math problems, multi-step logic
- Code generation, debugging, code review, refactoring
- Conversations, content writing, general assistance
Consider Alternatives For
- Image understanding (needs vision capability)
- Simple Q&A (cheaper models available)
