| Making Luna, which was already very cheap and extremely capable, 5x cheaper is crazy. I use Sol at work but Luna at home, and while there's definitely a difference, it doesn't feel like night-and-day. After a year of ever-increasing prices it suddenly feels (between this, Kimi K3, GLM 5.2) that prices are falling again. |

| I pretty strongly disagree about comparing this to Kimi and GLM, 5.2 was a big price hike for Chinese models, and Kimi K3 was a big price hike to that. K3 was within spitting distance of OpenAI pricing (more expensive than short context Terra, less than long context). And that's after months of OpenAI/Anthropic prices going up. Now we have an American lab drastically cutting a price, feels like this is the opposite of that trend. |

| ▲ | pixelesque 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | It's cheaper currently on many of the inference providers. Personally, I'm having surprisingly good results with DeepSeek 4 Pro at home, which is very good value for money: it's not as good as Claude / GPT 5.6 (I have Co-pilot license at work), but it's still really useful for code reviews, validating thoughts, and especially designing / writing unit tests for new (and old before refactoring) functionality. And it's very cheap per task. (Flash is even cheaper, but I've had issues with that on more complex tasks where it starts forgetting things and arguing with itself "but wait, let me read the function again"). | | |

According to the DeepSeek usage panel, 50M tokens have cost me $1.38. It's not the smartest and does like to overthink, but if you have well defined problems it's good for coding. Well... except all your data going to China. I just use it for personal projects. | | | |
| ▲ | mark_l_watson an hour ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | I toggle back and forth between deepseek v 4 flash/pro on FireWorks.ai using OpenCode. Easy to toggle, I default to flash. | |
| ▲ | subarctic 2 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | I tried out deepseek v4 pro via a couple providers from openrouter, and it's always getting 429s. Are you running it on your own hardware? | | |
| ▲ | pixelesque an hour ago | parent | next [-] | | I wish!! No, I'm using it via OpenRouter in pi.dev - I just used it 30 mins ago... Providers (automatically selected): StreamLake and Baidu Qianfan. | |

| ▲ | oh_no an hour ago | parent | prev [-] | | where are you seeing cheap Kimi? pricing I've seen is the same across the board (presumably due to licensing terms) and is in the Terra range. |

| depends on what you are doing. if you are doing verifiable tasks like fixing bugs then any model would do as long as you write the right verification. |
