1 provider serves this model

Multigrid picks between them on every request using your policy. Each price is what that route costs us, and we add no spread of our own to it.

This model is reached through OpenRouter, and the rate reflects that

We hold no direct key for deepseek, so every route above goes through OpenRouter. We do not buy tokens from them — we buy their credit, and a dollar of it costs $1.055. The rate shown here is their price with that 5.5% included, because that is what the route costs us. We add nothing on top of it.

The consequence, plainly: for this model we cannot be cheaper than OpenRouter. Their fee sits underneath ours. What you get here instead is one balance and one key across the whole catalogue, failover, spend caps and the audit trail — and if you already hold a deepseek contract, bring that key and we take nothing at all.

No performance data published yet
Time to first token, throughput and uptime are measurements, and Multigrid has not served enough traffic through R1 0528 to publish honest ones. When it has, they will appear here per provider, taken from real requests. Nothing on this page is estimated: prices, context window and capabilities all come from the provider’s own documentation.

Signing up takes no card and commits you to nothing — you start at a zero balance, so nothing can be charged until you decide to add credit. The playground opens on R1 0528 and prices every answer as it arrives, at the rate shown above — what the route costs us, with nothing of ours added. Already have an account?
