Where do you run DeepSeek?
- jameson 4mo agoDiscounted pricing is available only at https://platform.deepseek.com https://platform.deepseek.com. All of OpenRouter providers do not match their pricing at the moment.
- SwellJoe 4mo agoI'll also note that the DeepSeek API seems to be really good at caching and their cached input price is more heavily discounted than most providers at $0.003625 (vs. $0.435 for input cache misses). So, it's hard to spend a lot of money fast with DeepSeek. I was concerned I would need to do something specific in my dumb agent harness to make caching effective, since I'd read Anthropic's reason for forcing people to use Claude Code in order to use the rolling token usage limits on a subscription was because they could control cache behavior more effectively, but DeepSeek seems to be able to handle caching very effectively for raw API calls.
- tempaccount420 4mo agoIt's not discounted pricing anymore, it's the regular pricing.
- SwellJoe 4mo agoI used the native DeepSeek API at deepseek.com. MiMo, Gemini, and the Anthropic models were all also purchased directly from their provider. The other models in the bench were either on OpenRouter or self-hosted.
