Most-used AI models for finance & trading
DeepSeek V4 Flash 0423 is the most-used model for finance & trading on OpenRouter, handling 11.1% of requests classified as finance & trading over the last 7 days.

Adoption reflects price, latency and availability as much as raw capability — which is exactly why it often disagrees with the benchmark leaderboards, and why it is worth reading alongside them.
