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.
One subscription, every top AI model, one fast chat window.
Chat with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and other frontier models from a single subscription, choosing the best fit per task.
Compare answers by switching models inside the same thread instead of opening separate tools and copying text between them.
Search, rename and organise past threads so research and drafts remain easy to find weeks later.
A lightweight interface tuned to feel responsive, so replies stream in without a heavy, cluttered workspace.
Delivers OpenAI's flagship reasoning and agentic workflows, but restricts chats exclusively to GPT models rather than multi-model routing.
