Cómo usar DeepSeek-R1 gratis: Guía completa paso a paso
DeepSeek-R1 shook the global technology sphere by delivering o1-grade logical and mathematical reasoning while remaining 100% open-weights under the permissive MIT license. Here is your definitive blueprint for accessing R1 free across web, mobile, and offline environments.

Official Web Portal & Mobile Access with DeepThink
Accessing the full 671B parameter Mixture-of-Experts model is completely free via chat.deepseek.com. Ensure you toggle the «DeepThink (R1)» button before submitting prompts. The official mobile apps on iOS and Android deliver unlimited free reasoning without 3-hour caps.
Zero-Cost Cloud Providers (Groq, Together, OpenRouter)
When main servers experience traffic surges, leverage cloud routing providers. Groq provides near-instantaneous 300 tokens/second inference for distilled models, while OpenRouter maintains free tiers for deepseek/deepseek-r1:free.
Running Distilled R1 Locally via Ollama
Run DeepSeek-R1 100% offline with zero cloud telemetry. On an 8GB GPU, run 'ollama run deepseek-r1:8b'. On a 12GB-16GB GPU (like an RTX 3060 12GB), run 'ollama run deepseek-r1:14b', which provides an exceptional balance of speed and reasoning depth.
Integrating into VS Code and Developer Workflows
Connect your free or ultra-low-cost DeepSeek API token into VS Code, Cursor, or Chatbox via standard OpenAI-compatible base URLs (https://api.deepseek.com) with the model name 'deepseek-reasoner'.
