DeepSeek says Harness hit 1.54M daily users and plans a plugin marketplace
DeepSeek disclosed on X that its open-source agent app Harness reached 1.54 million daily active users by 4 Nov, counting users on its official API, Bloomberg reported via Free Malaysia Today. That is up from about 271,000 at the end of September after a desktop version shipped, the report says. DeepSeek is planning an official plugin marketplace and a support programme for plugin creators with token grants, technical help and promotion; no further details were disclosed. The company counts about 35,000 plugins and says 60% of users have built at least one, though plugin quality varies. Harness is consuming about 92 trillion tokens a day, the report says, or about 60 million per active user. Treat the user, plugin and token figures as DeepSeek's own claims.
Why it matters: Agent apps can burn far more tokens than chat. If you trial open agent platforms, set spend caps early and review which third-party plugins staff install before they touch company data.
