DeepSeek

Language and multimodal models for chat, coding, and reasoning applications.

  • Hosted chat and developer API
  • OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible API formats
  • Model-specific reasoning, vision, and tool support

DeepSeek develops models and operates a hosted chat service and API. The API supports compatible request formats used by OpenAI and Anthropic clients, which can simplify integration with existing tools. Choose the exact model for required features: vision and other capabilities differ between models.

How pricing works

API billing separates cached input, uncached input, and output tokens. The current schedule also distinguishes peak and off-peak periods. Downloaded model releases are a separate deployment option with their own license and compute costs.
