Qwen: Qwen3 8B API: Endpoint & 30% Discount
DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B is an open-weight text generation model.
What is DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B?
DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B is an open-weight text generation model, published by DeepSeek with open weights at deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B. LLM API does not route this model today, so there is no endpoint or code sample for it here. What this page does give you is the self-hosting picture: published weight sizes, the VRAM each quantisation needs and the commands to serve it yourself. Every figure is read from the public repository and refreshed weekly. At import it had 823,665 downloads on Hugging Face in the previous 30 days, under the mit licence.
Can you self-host DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B?
No. We found no public weights for DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B on Hugging Face, so there is nothing to download, quantize or serve on your own GPUs: no VRAM budget, no vLLM or GGUF build to plan for. The only way to run it is over an API.

Use it if...
- You want to run DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B on your own hardware and keep every prompt inside your network
- The weights are published openly, so you can pin one checkpoint and keep it reproducible
- You want to fine-tune or quantise the model rather than accept a hosted configuration
- Your workload rewards deliberate step-by-step reasoning over fast replies
Avoid if...
- LLM API does not route this model today, so there is no endpoint here to call
- You have no GPU capacity: the VRAM figures below are the floor, not a suggestion
- You want zero operations — serving, scaling and upgrades are yours to run
- You need image, audio or video input; this checkpoint is text in, text out
