DeepSeek V3.1

text->text

Open-weights frontier model that matched GPT-4-class quality at a fraction of the inference cost. Sparked the late-2024 cost reset.

DeepSeek V3.1 is a efficient AI model from DeepSeek. It costs $0.210 per million input tokens and $0.790 per million output tokens (blended $0.384/M), with a 164K-token context window.

Profile inherited from upstream DeepSeek-V3 ↗ — this is a hosted variant of the same open-weights model.
