Prompting tips
- State the output format before the task — models follow contracts declared early.
- Few-shot beats description: two worked examples outperform a paragraph of rules.
- Cap output length explicitly when cost matters; output tokens dominate most bills.

DeepSeek V4 Pro pricing
DeepSeek V4 Pro pricing is per token: $0.6 / M input · $1.8 / M output. Output tokens cost 3× input tokens, so long generations — not long prompts — are what actually drive most bills. A typical call with a 2k-token prompt and a 1k-token answer costs about $0.0030.
Every call is metered exactly and attributed to your key — the dashboard, the API usage response, and your invoice all read from the same ledger row. Cap any key's monthly spend with a budget cap, and bring your own provider key (BYOK) at 0% platform fee if you already have a direct contract.

| DeepSeek V4 Pro | Chat | $0.6 / M input · $1.8 / M output |
