DeepSeek Harness Hits 1.54M Daily Users
The first operating disclosure puts agent usage on an industrial footing, though the numbers remain vendor-supplied.
DeepSeek disclosed on 5 November 2026 that its Harness product reached 1.54 million daily active users as of 4 November, measured among users of its official API, consuming roughly 92 trillion tokens per day. That marks a rise of 545% from the desktop launch on 29 September, alongside 5.48 million monthly active users and 261 requests per user per day. About 35,000 third-party plugins are published, and some 60% of active users have built or installed at least one. The company plans an official plugin marketplace with token incentives for authors. These figures are vendor-reported and have not been independently audited; some users report that loading many plugins overflows available context.
