Where DeepSeek-V3.2-Exp stands out and where it falls behind, by the numbers
DeepSeek-V3.2-Exp has published results on 10 tests compiled by Epoch AI. The yardstick here is its generation: its position among the models released between Jan 2, 2025 and Dec 28, 2025 that took the same test. Against the whole archive, which includes 2023 models, a recent release lands near the top of almost everything, and that says nothing.
Where it stands out
Tests where it sits in the top third of its own generation.
Where it falls behind
Tests where it sits in the bottom half of its own generation.

In the ROO3 AI Benchmark, ordered by the Epoch AI ECI, DeepSeek-V3.2-Exp ranks #94 out of 267 models, with an ECI of 144.97. The ECI is a composite index that combines several hard benchmarks into a single scale. The position changes when a new model comes out, and the page is refreshed six times a day.
Is DeepSeek-V3.2-Exp better than Gemini 2.5 Pro (Jun 2025)?
Across the 8 tests both models took and Epoch AI compiled, DeepSeek-V3.2-Exp comes out ahead on 4, behind on 4 and tied on 0. It is a test-by-test count with no weighting: a win in math counts the same as a win in coding. To choose between the two, look at the tests that resemble your own use.
What is DeepSeek-V3.2-Exp best at?
Against models of the same generation (released up to 9 months before and up to 3 months after it), the best relative results of DeepSeek-V3.2-Exp are: The Agent Company (#1 of 6); CritPt (#4 of 32); Dtbench (#6 of 47). The yardstick is its position among the models of that period that took the same test.
Where do the numbers on this page come from?
From the same three sources as the ranking, all openly licensed: Epoch AI (ECI and individual tests, CC BY 4.0), Arena (human-preference ELO, CC BY 4.0) and LiveBench (overall average, CC BY-SA 4.0). ROO3 does not measure any model. When the page shows a figure published by the maker itself, it appears in the written analysis, labeled as the maker's, and never enters the ranking.
