ns123abc · x · 2026-08-13
DeepSeek has reportedly adjusted its API pricing strategy, drawing significant attention from developers. Under the new pricing structure, base prices for off-peak hours have nearly doubled, and peak hour rates are set at 2x on top of that.
This means that for heavy users relying on the DeepSeek API, actual usage costs could surge to 3-4 times higher than current levels.
