DeepSeek API Pricing — All Providers Compared

DeepSeek pricing changes quickly because the same model family can appear through the official DeepSeek API, OpenRouter routes, and other providers that expose compatible endpoints. This page collects DeepSeek V3, DeepSeek-R1 Reasoner, DeepSeek Coder, and related rows from the current pricing snapshot so you can compare input and output prices per 1M tokens without jumping between provider pages. The official API row is useful as a baseline when it exists, while OpenRouter can still be attractive for teams that need unified routing or already use OpenRouter keys.

The main pricing decision is usually workload-specific. DeepSeek V3-style chat traffic often cares about blended input and output cost, DeepSeek-R1 Reasoner workloads may have heavier output token volume, and Coder usage can vary depending on repository size and agent loops. Check the source timestamp and confidence before treating a row as final, then use the calculator for monthly volume estimates. If OpenRouter and official DeepSeek prices are both present, the side-by-side comparison page gives a stricter provider matchup.
