Questions people ask
Which is better, DeepSeek-V4-Pro or Gemini 3.1 Pro?
Gemini 3.1 Pro wins six of the seven areas where both have results: coding, reasoning, facts, math, long documents and following instructions. DeepSeek-V4-Pro wins agents, and costs 91% less.
Which is better for coding?
Gemini 3.1 Pro. It wins 5 of the 10 coding tests both models report; DeepSeek-V4-Pro wins 2, and 3 are ties.
Which is cheaper?
DeepSeek-V4-Pro costs $0.43 per million input tokens and $0.87 per million output tokens; Gemini 3.1 Pro costs $2.00 and $12.00. That makes DeepSeek-V4-Pro about 91% cheaper for the same work.
How do you compare the two?
We use the 79 benchmark tests both models have published scores on. The verdict counts the 36 tests in the eight capability areas, and a gap under one point (ten on rating-style scales) counts as a tie. The other 43 are listed but not counted, because several are summary scores or repeat a test. Each score is the one shown on the model's own page.
