The platform's numbers
DeepSeek Harness has disclosed usage data for its platform, as reported by IT之家 on November 5, 2026. Taking users of the official API as the reference, as of November 4 the platform had 1.54 million daily active users and a daily consumption of about 92 trillion tokens. The figure comes just a few months after launch: version v0.1 was published on August 13, while the desktop version was made available on September 29.
The combination of active users and token volumes offers an indication of usage intensity, but the source does not clarify how consumption is distributed among individual users, applications, or enterprise use cases. It also does not specify whether and to what extent the data include use via the desktop version compared with other access methods.
The plugin ecosystem
According to IT之家, from launch to date the number of third-party plugins has risen to about 35,000. About 60% of active users have created or installed at least one external plugin, a figure suggesting that extensibility has become a central component of the user experience, although the source does not specify how this percentage was measured or the exact reference period.
The company has stated its intention to act on multiple fronts: increase the stability and compatibility of the APIs for plugins, strengthen security mechanisms, and build an official marketplace. The latter should simplify publication by authors and discovery by users. These are programmatic announcements: the source does not indicate launch dates or technical specifications.
Support for authors and openings to enterprises
DeepSeek Harness is also preparing a support program aimed at plugin authors, based on token incentives, technical exchange, and promotion of works. The company specified that the concrete modalities will be defined based on the community's needs and feedback, so the amount of incentives and access criteria remain to be verified.
The platform is also opening up to startups and companies interested in integrating products, services, and professional expertise through plugins, to explore possible collaborations. The source does not provide examples of already active partnerships or commercial terms. It therefore remains to be clarified how the company intends to balance openness to third parties with the aforementioned objectives of API security and stability.
