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.

Point an existing SDK, agent or coding tool at NaN's endpoint with a personal API key and keep your current code, just swapping the base URL.
Membership plans include recurring credits and the self-hosted models draw none, so heavy experimentation does not scale linearly in cost.
Chat, reasoning and vision models plus embeddings, reranking, Kokoro TTS, Whisper STT and image generation from FLUX and Qwen-Image, all behind one API.
Inference runs in the European Union with zero prompt or response logging; your code is not used for training and only cluster metrics are retained.
Provides stronger multi-modal reasoning and agentic tools, but lacks DeepSeek's ultra-low-cost API pricing.
