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.
Speech-to-text and audio intelligence API for production voice products
Stream audio over WebSocket for live captioning or submit files via REST for batch transcription, supporting MP3, WAV, FLAC, Opus, and most other formats.
Automatic, accent-sensitive language detection across 100+ languages, including code-switching for conversations that move between languages mid-sentence.
Speaker diarization, named entity recognition, PII redaction, sentiment analysis, and summarization, each billed only when you enable it.
Feed transcripts directly into a large language model, either Gladia-hosted or a model you bring yourself (BYOM), to generate summaries and structured outputs.
