Happy to see Chinese OSS models keep getting better and cheaper. It also comes with a 50% API price drop for an already cheap model, now at:

$0.28/M Input ($0.028/M cache hit) > $0.42/M Output

This price drop is nice but I wonder how long it will last. Their prices used to be very low,then they almost doubled, and now it dropped.

I don't know if it will stay this low but the whole point of v3.2 is to be cheaper to run than <= v3.1.

(The inference costs are cheaper for them now as context grows because of the Sparse attention mechanism)

I was using it daily, but after the price jump, using codex and claude was much cheaper than using deepseek.

What was the price before? I thought they had just increased their prices.

Input: $0.07 (cached), $0.56 (cache miss)

Output: $1.68 per million tokens.
