API prices
List price on each vendor’s standard tier. Batch, long-context, promo-window, and cached-only prices are left out here. They’re in the full catalog.
| Class | Model | In | Out | Last change |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flagship | none | Not mapped. DeepSeek’s models and pricing page lists two API models, deepseek-flash and deepseek-v4-pro, side by side with their versions, context and prices. No sentence says which one to start with. Both are in the full catalog. | ||
| Balanced | none | Not mapped. DeepSeek sells two models and names no middle tier. The page compares them only on features, concurrency and price. | ||
| Economy | none | Not mapped. deepseek-flash is the cheaper of DeepSeek’s two models, but no DeepSeek page says to use it for cost-sensitive work. Its off-peak prices, half the peak rate, are in the full catalog. | ||
