  "abstract": "Which open-weight model families do teams use? In October 2026 DeepSeek held 60% of open-weight traffic on the Requesty gateway. GLM reached 10% after starting the year at 4%, and smaller families such as Gemma, Nemotron and MiMo grew to 23%.",

  "questions": [
    "Which open-source LLM is most used?",
    "How has DeepSeek share changed in 2026?",
    "Which open-weight families are growing?"
