Deepseek Plans Pricing

DeepSeek prices its API on a per-token, pay-as-you-go basis with no monthly subscription tier. Two production models are available — DeepSeek-V4-Flash (non-thinking) and DeepSeek-V4-Pro (thinking/reasoning). Both expose distinct prices for cache-hit and cache-miss input tokens plus output tokens. The legacy `deepseek-chat` and `deepseek-reasoner` model identifiers are deprecated aliases. V4-Pro carries a 75 percent promotional discount valid through 2026-05-31. Account top-ups are prepaid; there is no separate enterprise SKU on the public site.
