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.
One API key for frontier models, 1,000+ AI tools, and one invoice
Point your existing SDK at Flatkey's router URL and select models by ID instead of managing a credential per provider.
Frontier chat models and 1,000+ pay-per-call tools share one auth layer, one balance, and one invoice.
Issue scoped keys per agent or environment, capped by spend and restricted to approved models and tools.
Requests route across five channel classes; when one degrades the router reroutes, backed by a 99.5% SLA document.
Provides stronger multi-modal reasoning and agentic tools, but lacks DeepSeek's ultra-low-cost API pricing.
