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.
Developer gateway for Seedance video generation — prompts, examples, pricing and API access
Three-step flow — POST a prompt, poll the returned task ID, then download the finished video URL — with ready-to-copy Python and JavaScript snippets for text-to-video, image-to-video and reference-to-video.
Per-video and per-second pricing broken down by resolution and duration for Seedance 2.0, alongside public reference prices for Kling 3.0 and Veo 3.1 so teams can budget before building.
A capability-by-capability breakdown covering resolution, clip length, reference assets, local editing, multilingual speech and physics simulation, with clear flags on what is announced versus confirmed.
Real outputs generated through the API with the prompts that produced them, covering documentary, martial-arts restyle, VFX edit and fashion-film briefs.
