Will Developers Keep Using DeepSeek After the API Price Increase?

DeepSeek has raised prices for its V4 Flash and V4 Pro APIs, prompting developers to reassess costs, workloads, and alternatives. The change primarily affects API usage rather than the consumer web and app experience.

DeepSeek has reportedly increased the prices of its V4 Flash and V4 Pro APIs, with separate rates for peak and off-peak periods. The impact differs by workload because cached input, uncached input, and output are priced separately, and the reported increases are not uniform across these categories.

The change is most relevant to developers, AI application teams, and users running high-volume agents. It does not mean that ordinary users of DeepSeek’s website or mobile app are automatically being charged according to API rates.

Long-context workflows, repeated tool calls, and iterative coding agents are likely to see the largest cost increases. Some third-party services have already reduced model quotas in response to higher upstream costs, leaving users to balance price, performance, and migration effort.

OpenCode Go每月订阅价格为10美元，平台希望通过批量折扣和预留GPU容量，为用户提供最高约60美元、相当于订阅费六倍的模型用量。但这一倍率并不适用于所有模型。对于暂时无法获得采购折扣、也难以通过自行托管降低成本的模型，OpenCode只能压低相应的使用价值。 DeepSeek涨价后，这种差异已经反映在额度表中。OpenCode为V4 Flash配置的套餐使用价值为30美元，V4 Pro只有15美元，均未达到部分成熟模型可获得的60美元。按照平台观察到的典型请求结构，在每五小时12美元的使用上限内，V4 Flash预计可以完成约7600次请求，V4 Pro约为1050次。固定月费没有变化，上游价格压力被转化成了更低的使用倍率和更少的估算调用次数。作为参照，同一计划中，GPT-5.6 Luna每五小时约可完成2050次请求，MiniMax M3约3200次，Hy3约4300次，MiMo-V2.5则达到3.01万次。不同模型的输入长度、缓存量和输出量并不相同，这些数字不能用于比较单次任务的真实成本。它们能够说明的是，在固定订阅模式下，平台会根据采购价格和托管成本重新分配模型额度，DeepSeek涨价最终由订阅用户以可用量减少的方式承担。 ) 图：在OpenCode社区，一名用户以“Bye bye OpenCode Go”为题讨论Flash价格变化，评论中有人提醒取消订阅，也有人表示“已经不值得”。面向多模型重度用户、规模相对较小的Cola Token Plan也表示，按照自身流量结构测算，DeepSeek的综合成本增加约3至6倍，随后将Flash和Lite的套餐消耗标准整体调整到此前约三倍，并准备重新设计模型组合。 [...] 问题在于，低价线路仍要接受四项检验：生成速度是否稳定、峰值流量下是否可用、量化后能力是否下降，以及它提供的究竟是不是最新模型版本。 ) 1 DeepSeek还有性价比吗？ DeepSeek的新价格生效前后，竞争对手正在向相反方向行动。单看Token价格，DeepSeek Flash在峰时已经失去部分优势：普通输入为每百万Token 0.44美元，是Luna的2.2倍；输出为1.32美元，比Luna高10%；缓存读取为0.014美元，仍比Luna低30%。到了谷时，V4 Flash普通输入为0.
