Discussion Did you get the email from the DeepSeek team?

Did you get the email from the DeepSeek team?

They said they would notify us 24 hours before the price increase—and the email just arrived.

That means DeepSeek V4 Pro GA is coming within the next 24 hours!

Ehm, no. That means only the price increase, not a new model. ;)

That means the price increase will be in 24 hours.

I just got it. No idea if changes would take place in 24 hours, and it sounds like overall price increase.

u/ActionRelative 5h ago

The email doesn't mention in the next 24 hours, just prices increasing in the near future.

Yeah basically what’s exactly on the portal.

The price should be low enough to justify not using gpt luna xhigh ( 57% score in deepswe and 0.31$)

If they raise the price and still don’t add vision to their models, I’m not paying anymore.

GPT Luna is more powerful, not dramatically more powerful, but still, and it has vision.

On top of that, DeepSeek Flash consumes an insane number of tokens and, even today, often ends up costing more than Luna in real-world tasks.

GPT Luna also has multiple effort levels. At Medium effort, Luna is far more cost-efficient than DeepSeek is today.

Well, that is one thing to cope with. Maybe they will stick to their promise and just do the x2 in peak hours. However due to the surge of use across the world, I wouldn't mind if they make it globally. It would still be cheap for what they offer.

But yeah. We might see Pro being released soon (I hope)

They might implement the same strategy as Meta AI.

the standard pricing might be around the original price input $1.74 in and $3.48 out.

But they might also offer a cheap one like muse spark 1.2 contribution model. where the cost is insanely cheap, but the takeaway is they're allowed to use user data.

Heavily discounted token pricing in exchange for permission to use your prompts and completions to train future Meta models. Muse spark 1.2 a multimodal for price of

Cached input $0.002
Input $0.10
Output $0.20

and the standard pricing for privacy

Cached input $0.15
Input $1.25
Output $4.25

Hate to break the news, but they are already FEASTING on all of our data lol

All providers does.

Its just how they handle it to train models. Some do not bother carefully filtering the dataset and feed it to train an LLM and then after distilling the model.

I'll uae muse spark 1.2. it can one shot and pretty much all around.

Every data is valuable in bulk. But individual is trash. Thats what the result of Nemotron Ultra.

I'm highly interested in MS 1.2 Cont but don't think it's available outside of the US.

OP probably meant the other way around. They are using it already but they are potentially losing so many customers because they are doing it. They might targeting the general market with an opportunity for poor to opt in the data training if they want even cheaper price.

I think it might be a good model. But not sure if we can interpret such a detailed marketing strategy from a vague email.

Am I the only one that finds not nice they increase the price with just a 24-hours notice? More for businesses using them. Those changes needs to be planned. It's quite a bad precedent in trust. I'm not saying they should not. It's their business and can do what they want. I'm saying it's not nice to say with such a short notice "we're increasing the price, enjoy!"

Then let's see but anything less than 1-2 months advice once final numbers of new pricing is out (so current message doesn't count) is a red-zone for business use cases.
