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.
Open-source, plugin-rich chat interface for every major AI model
Talk to OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Mistral, DeepSeek, Qwen, Groq and local Ollama models from one interface, switching providers within a single conversation.
Discover, clone and share agents with predefined prompts, tools and knowledge, so you are not building every workflow from scratch.
Upload documents and files so answers are grounded in your own content rather than the model's general memory.
Extend assistants with web search, image generation and API calls, and render generated code or documents in a live canvas.
Provides stronger multi-modal reasoning and agentic tools, but lacks DeepSeek's ultra-low-cost API pricing.
