Time to first token, throughput and uptime are measurements, and Multigrid has not served enough traffic through DeepSeek R1 (0528) to publish honest ones. When it has, they will appear here per provider, taken from real requests. Nothing on this page is estimated: prices, context window and capabilities all come from the provider’s own documentation.
