Sovereignty and hosting

Catalogue only

This model is catalogued for reference. It is not hosted on LLM EU yet, and no first-party endpoint serves it here. Requests to it go to the provider directly, under that provider's own terms.

Summary

DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B is a 32B dense model distilled from DeepSeek-R1 into a Qwen2.5 base, published under the MIT licence. It keeps the reasoning behaviour of R1 at a size that fits on one 80GB accelerator, with a configuration maximum of 131,072 tokens. DeepSeek documents it as a distillation, so its ceiling is the teacher model’s reasoning, not a new training run.

When to use it

Strengths

fits a single 80GB accelerator
MIT licence
retains the R1 reasoning style that smaller base models usually lack

Limits

a distillation, so quality is bounded by the teacher
long reasoning traces increase output cost
no evaluation has been run by LLM EU

Pricing

This model is catalogued for reference. It is not hosted on LLM EU yet, and no first-party endpoint serves it here. Requests to it go to the provider directly, under that provider's own terms.

Verification status

Where a field has no source, the card shows it as unverified instead of filling it in. An empty field is information.

LLM EU Verified means documented, not legally certified. It is not an AI Act conformity assessment and LLM EU is not an EU body.

Example request

curl https://api.llmeu.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LLMEU_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model":"deepseek-r1-distill-qwen-32b","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}]}'

No playground is deployed for this model: no endpoint serves it, so a request would have nowhere to go.

Benchmarks

No published evaluation. This is a gap, not a hidden result.
