Learn to code by doing, with AI support inside every lesson
Instead of long tutorials, the platform breaks programming into short exercises you complete directly in the browser.
AI assistance is woven into exercises so you can ask for a hint or explanation at the exact moment you get stuck, rather than waiting for a mentor.
The learning experience is designed to work well on a phone, so short practice sessions fit into a commute or a lunch break.
Topics build on each other, moving from core syntax and logic toward problem solving and real project-style tasks.
High-efficiency open-weight and hosted reasoning AI powered by DeepSeek-V4 and R1 at ultra-low token costs.
Leverages a sparse Mixture-of-Experts architecture (49B active parameters out of 1.6T on V4-Pro) to process up to 1 million tokens with minimal latency and memory overhead.
Pioneered by DeepSeek-R1 and integrated into V3.2 and V4 thinking modes, exposing step-by-step self-verification for complex math, logic, and code debugging.
Drops input token costs to $0.003/1M on Flash and $0.022/1M on V4-Pro for cache hits, with 50% lower rates during off-peak UTC hours.
Provides free access at chat.deepseek.com and on iOS/Android with document uploads, reasoning mode, and web search without paywalling core models.
Provides stronger multi-modal reasoning and agentic tools, but lacks DeepSeek's ultra-low-cost API pricing.
