"DeepSeek's Explosive Growth: 1 Billion Users in Seven Days"
1min read DeepSeek, a cutting-edge AI platform, has achieved a remarkable milestone in user growth. In just seven days, the platform's user base surpassed one billion, marking a significant increase in its user base. This rapid growth comes on the heels of the launch of the DeepSeek-R1 model at the end of January, which sparked an explosive increase in users.
The platform's daily active users had already exceeded 20 million in the 20 days leading up to the launch. Notably, ChatGPT accounted for 40% of the data in the first 20 days. However, the release of the DeepSeek-R1 model triggered a surge in users, with over 80% of the user increase occurring in the last week. This resulted in a staggering growth of 100 million users in just seven days.
The platform has fully integrated the Farcaster protocol, allowing users with Farcaster accounts to log in and comment. This integration has likely contributed to the platform's rapid user growth and engagement. As DeepSeek continues to innovate and expand its offerings, it will be interesting to see how the platform evolves and responds to the growing demand for AI services.
