Deepseek and Kimi both have great agentic performance
When used with crush/opencode they are close to Claude performance.
Nothing that runs on a 4090 would compete but Deepseek on openrouter is still 25x cheaper than claude
- Aeolun 11mo ago> Deepseek on openrouter is still 25x cheaper than claude Is it? Or only when you don’t factor in Claude cached context? I’ve consistently found it pointless to use open models because the price of the good ones is so close to cached context on Claude that I don’t need them.
- joefourier 11mo agoDeepseek via their API also has cached context, although the tokens/s was much lower than Claude when I tried it. But for background agents the price difference makes it absolutely worth it.
- ewoodrich 11mo agoYes, if you try using Kilo Code/Cline via Openrouter the cost will be much cheaper using Deepseek/Kimi vs Claude Sonnet 4.5.
