DeepSeek builds high-performance, open-weights language models. Its Mixture-of-Experts architecture activates only a fraction of the model per query, making it cost-effective. Open-weights let you self-host for full data control.
A STOA consultant can help you evaluate these tools based on your specific business needs and walk you through implementation.
Talk to STOADeepSeek is best for small business owners who have a developer on staff and want a cheap, powerful AI model they can fully control and host themselves. The big win is that the models are open-weights and free to download, so you're not locked into a subscription — but setting it up requires real technical skill that most small teams don't have. If you just need an AI assistant to use right now, a simpler tool like ChatGPT will get you there faster.
