Frequently Asked Questions about DeepSeek R1

How much does the DeepSeek R1 API cost per 1M tokens?+

DeepSeek R1 by DeepSeek is priced at $0.55 per 1M input tokens and $2.19 per 1M output tokens. With prompt caching enabled, cached input tokens cost $0.14 per 1M tokens, and asynchronous Batch API requests receive a 50% discount.

Should I use a $20/month subscription or the DeepSeek R1 pay-as-you-go API?+

A flat $20/month consumer subscription is predictable for daily interactive chat and manual coding. However, if you are building software, running automated workflows, or sending low-to-moderate volume with prompt caching enabled, the pay-as-you-go API is typically far more cost-effective and offers higher rate limits without manual UI caps.

How many words and pages fit in DeepSeek R1's context window?+

DeepSeek R1 features a 128K tokens context window, which equals approximately 96,000 English words or ~256 standard single-spaced pages in a single prompt. Its maximum output generation per turn is 8,192 tokens.

Can I run DeepSeek R1 locally on my own GPU (Open Weights)?+

Yes, DeepSeek R1 (671B Total (37B Active)) releases open weights that can be self-hosted locally or on private cloud GPUs using vLLM, Ollama, SGLang, or llama.cpp.

Does DeepSeek train on data sent to the DeepSeek R1 API, and is commercial use allowed?+

100% Isolated when self-hosted on private GPUs or VPC. License tier: Permissive Open-Weights (Apache 2.0 / MIT Commercial). Full commercial ownership of generated outputs. Supported deployment channels include: Self-Hosted GPU (vLLM / Ollama), Private VPC, or Managed Serverless API.

How does DeepSeek R1 perform on coding and reasoning benchmarks?+

DeepSeek R1 achieves a composite Intelligence Index of 49/100, scoring 49.2% on SWE-bench Verified, 71.5% on GPQA Diamond, 84% on MMLU-Pro, and 1340 pts on Chatbot Arena Elo.

What is DeepSeek R1 best used for?+

DeepSeek R1 is best suited for: compétitif codage, mathématique recherche, et privacy-premier sur-premise déploiements. Assessment: Le de référence modèle de raisonnement à poids ouverts qui un brisé les barrières tarifaires pour les mathématiques et la logique de niveau doctorat.
