How much does the DeepSeek Chat API cost?
Input costs $0.14 per 1M tokens (11.83 ₽) and output costs $0.28 per 1M (23.66 ₽). DeepSeek bills the prompt and the completion separately, so the price of a call depends on how long both are. Ruble figures use the Bank of Russia rate of 84.51 ₽ per dollar for September 2026.
How much do 1,000 DeepSeek Chat tokens cost?

What are the DeepSeek Chat limits?
