Cut your DeepSeek AI bill without changing a line of code.

No. We're an independent provider — not affiliated with or endorsed by DeepSeek. We resell access to DeepSeek V4.1 Flash and handle the commercial side around it: contracting, invoicing, settlement, and a named account contact.

If you're happy with self-service, going direct is a perfectly reasonable option.

By bank transfer or wire against a monthly invoice. There is no checkout on this site — we don't take card payments here. Pricing is agreed with your account contact and confirmed in the contract.

Yes, both. Contract terms are negotiable, and we can sign a data processing agreement. That's the main practical difference from a self-service API, where the standard agreement typically can't be amended.

Usually the same day. The API is OpenAI-compatible, so in most codebases it's a change to base_url and the API key — nothing else. We'll walk your engineers through it.

We process request data to serve your requests and don't sell it. Full detail is in our privacy policy and data processing agreement. Tell us if you have residency requirements and we'll confirm what we can support before you commit.

Off-peak calls are billed at half the peak rate. It suits batch workloads — overnight backfills, bulk re-processing, periodic extraction runs — where a delay of a few hours costs you nothing.

OpenRouter routes across a very wide range of models. We do one thing: DeepSeek V4.1 Flash, as cheaply as we can, with the commercial process handled. If you need a dozen model families behind one key, they're the better fit. If DeepSeek is doing the work, we're usually the cheaper route.

Compare with OpenRouter

You get a named account contact — a person, not a ticket queue. Keep your current provider configured as a fallback so a bad day doesn't become an outage.

It's a Flash-class model, not a frontier reasoning model. Complex multi-step reasoning and hard math are better served by a larger model. It also doesn't take audio input. If your workload needs either, we'll tell you rather than sell you something that won't fit.

Yes — the model handles multilingual workloads well, including translation and extraction from non-English documents. Tell us which languages matter to you and we'll confirm before you commit.

Yes. The endpoints follow the OpenAI chat-completions schema, so the official openai SDKs — and anything built on them — work unchanged. For most teams the whole migration is base_url plus the API key.

V4.1 Flash takes a 1M-token context window and returns up to 384K tokens. That covers long documents, multi-file jobs, and large extraction batches without hand-chunking everything.

Concurrency on Flash goes up to 2,500. We set your account's limits when we onboard you, based on the volume you tell us — give us your peak concurrency and we'll confirm in writing what we can commit to.

Yes, and batch is where the economics get interesting. Pair it with off-peak and the per-token rate is half the peak rate. It suits overnight backfills and periodic re-processing, where a few hours of delay costs you nothing.

Cached input tokens are billed at a far lower rate than fresh ones. If you re-send the same large prefix on every call — a schema, a long instruction block, a fixed set of examples — caching is usually the single biggest lever on the bill. We'll look at your prompt structure with you.

That's what most of our customers run on it. Flash takes image input natively, so scans of invoices, receipts, and forms go in directly — no separate OCR step in front of it. Video input works too.

Yes to both. We can sign a data processing agreement, and the master agreement is negotiable. A self-service API typically can't amend its standard terms — that's usually the point where a legal review stops.

We'll put response and availability commitments in the contract, and tell you plainly what we can and can't guarantee before you sign. We don't publish a blanket uptime number that we'd then have to defend.

You get a named contact and a monthly itemized invoice. Tell us what your finance team needs to see on it and we'll shape the reporting around that.

We screen companies and end users against applicable export controls and sanctions before onboarding. Tell us where your entity and your users are and we'll confirm before you commit to anything.

Nothing holds you. Your integration is a base_url and a key — the same code runs against any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. There's no proprietary SDK to unwind.

Tell us your monthly volume and what you're running today, using the form below. We'll usually come back within one business day with a price and a named contact.
