^Sorry for this understatement. DeepSeek is actually selling tokens at a far cheaper price than my previous comment implied.

DeepSeek V4 Pro price on OpenRouter:

deepseek: $0.435 / $0.87

baidu/fp8: $1.521 / $3.042

novita/fp8: $1.64 / $3.38

Yup. DeepSeek either has next-generation hardware that somehow no one else has access to, or they're selling at a loss.
