Build the software your company runs on
Continual Analytics, business applications and automation agents all run on one shared foundation of objects, workflows, metrics, permissions and audit rules — instead of scattered point tools.
Describe a business process in natural language and Continual generates the data model, workflow steps, interface and coordinating agents, ready to go live without a lengthy setup project.
The platform ships with deployment, authentication, permissions and monitoring already wired in, so new systems move from idea to production quickly rather than stopping at prototype.
Your code is stored in Git and your data in fully managed Postgres with no lock-in, so engineers can inspect and extend anything directly.
High-efficiency open-weight and hosted reasoning AI powered by DeepSeek-V4 and R1 at ultra-low token costs.
Leverages a sparse Mixture-of-Experts architecture (49B active parameters out of 1.6T on V4-Pro) to process up to 1 million tokens with minimal latency and memory overhead.
Pioneered by DeepSeek-R1 and integrated into V3.2 and V4 thinking modes, exposing step-by-step self-verification for complex math, logic, and code debugging.
Drops input token costs to $0.003/1M on Flash and $0.022/1M on V4-Pro for cache hits, with 50% lower rates during off-peak UTC hours.
Provides free access at chat.deepseek.com and on iOS/Android with document uploads, reasoning mode, and web search without paywalling core models.
