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.

Pin feedback on any live page and hand it straight to your AI coding agent
Comment on any element of any page — prototype, staging, localhost or production — so every thread is attached to the exact element it refers to.
Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, OpenAI Codex, Grok, Windsurf, Lovable and Bolt can list threads, apply fixes and reply with the commit that closed them.
Comments are classified as they are typed — bug, feedback, idea, design inspiration or page copy — and can be sorted or bulk-managed by type.
Publish Claude artifacts or design surfaces to a hosted link; external reviewers join free and their comments land back in your workspace.
